I recently tried to start my truck and it weouldn't turn over. All the lights came on on the dash. As I tried to start my truck I heard a constant clicking sound. I can hear the engine act like it wants to turn over. I checked all the fuses and not one of them is burnt. When I listen for the clicking sound is sounds like its coming from the ignition switch or somewhere under the dash. I am looking for any suggestions on what might be wrong.

Test your starter to ensure it is engaging. If it is, it could be a faulty ignition switch.

It sounds like a faulty starter though.
