Flushed radiator and the car wont crank now? I'm not sure what it is. The battery has good voltage.. I just flushed my radiator. I attempt to start but all it does is make a little click. I checked the connections from the battery to the starter and its still good. The car would turn and run good last night. Now nothing. Do these starters just randomly go out?

Often times if the brushes are going out in the starter you can tap on the starter with a wrench and it will turn over.
When you turn the key to the key on engine off position do the gauge lights come on?

If the winding or brushes are going out in the starter it can intermittently not start. Just depends on if it stops on the faulty spot.
Tap on the starter and try to start it.
