    You can test it yourself by jumping it from another car. if it fires right up id start athe battery, if it still clicks than its probably the starter.

    I wouldnt say starter.. the solenoid is the link between the two.. it has to engage before the starter will..

    Easy way to test your battery is to turn on your headlights. If you try to crank it with the headlights on and a dead battery your lights will go out or really dim. otherwise I would say terminals.
