Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss Problems and faults
Starter will not engage, lights come clunking noise from starter

When the key is in the ignition and turned to engage starter, I get a clunk and the lights on the dash go out, but the car will not start. 1 hour earlier it had started with no problem! The battery is fully charged
