ke70 wont start!

[pebbles]

ive had this ke70 for a few weeks now, and it hasnt given me any dramas until just now
always starts fine, but well

i just got home form a mates house after being at work all night, and entering my driveway i slammed on my brakes because ther was a bigggg arse spiderweb accorss the whole thing, amazed at the spiderwweb i forgot to put my clutch in(lol) and so the car stalled, no biggy ill just start it back up...WRONG!
it now wont start, i had to push it the rest of the way up my driveway,
dash lights come on and when i try to turn it over it just makes a click noise,
i thought it might be a loose battery terminal, so i checked them but ther tight,
wats wrong :S ????

ps, and yes I'm sure i tried starting with the car out of gear/clutch in

If the starter is just clicking then it doesn't have enough power to turn the motor over.

Jump start it.

THEN check the charge from your alternator with a multimeter.

Had mine do a similar thing.

I replaced the starter motor and off she went, but I'm sure the old one was fine.

So i would look around that area.
