Usually, if your 2013 Chevy Equinox makes a clicking sound but fails to start, the likely culprit is a drained battery. This can happen from something as simple as leaving an interior light on, in which case, a jump start should do the trick. However, if the battery needs replacing, you'll require a group size 47 battery that can deliver 600 cold cranking amps, typically replaced every three years. Sometimes, the issue may not actually be with the battery itself, but instead with loose cables due to vibration or corrosion on the terminals which require cleaning. Resolving these concerns often resolves the problem. Another potential problem could be related to the alternator, which may be failing to replenish power to the battery, causing it to remain uncharged.
