My 2005 Ford Sport Trac will not start, only clicks when key is turned. It was
running just prior to this and the gages started going screwy bouncing all over
the place, after it was parked would not start.

Clean all battery and starter cable connections. These connections all need to be free of corrosion, clean and tight. Also do NOT assume the battery is good, have it tested.
