Clicking? I am not sure on a 08. But ealier like mine 04 have two relays the starter and system. Your system relay might be bad(clicking you are hearing). Fuel pump would not come on. Relays are the same on 04. You could swap them for a test. Just check the wiring diagram.


If you swapped them. The starter would not spin if the original System realy was bad. Could just be a bad connection on the system relay too.
