sounds like a starter solenoid issue, just go to a junkyard and get a used starter(20-40$)

Now would also be a good time to have the battery and alternator checked. Make sure the cables are clean and tight also.

Good luck and let us know. :)

Suggested Repair

Have the battery and alternator tested, and clean and tighten the battery cables. A hot no-crank click can also point to a failing starter solenoid; test the starter and replace it if needed.

Conversation Summary

A 1994 Saturn SC2 clicks and will not crank after it has been hot for about 30 minutes. One reply suggested a starter solenoid problem and a used starter. The expert also recommended checking the battery and alternator and making sure the cables are clean and tight.
