Why won't my 2003 Toyota Camry start when there's no click?

I’ve got an old Camry that’s served me well up until just recently. Now the car won’t even start and the ignition doesn’t click when I turn the key. How do I fix my 2003 Toyota Camry when it won’t start and there’s no click?

Toyotas are known for reliability
, but that doesn’t mean they’re immune to problems. When your 2003 Toyota Camry won’t start and there’s no click—also known as cranking—you’re likely looking at an issue with the starter.
Your car’s starter is the mechanism that gets your engine running by completing an electrical circuit when you turn the key. The cost to
repair a car starter
on a 2003 Camry is typically between $450 and $550 including labor.
Starters for 2003 Camrys typically last around 100,000 miles, so don’t be surprised if your older car is facing more mechanical problems than before. If you need more money for your repair budget, you can always download the
