I mean it won't even turn over. It's weird. I know that battery has juice and even if it didn't it won't even jump off. Every time you turn the key it's clicks and then it's like you don't have a battery in it. You have to pull on the positive cable and the power comes back on. But even if you pull on it while trying to start it it goes dead. Almost acts like a breaker. I'm pretty sure the starter is fine. It clicks. So I know it's getting power. Idk. I'm honestly at a loss. Anyone got any advice??
It could be your starter solenoid that would make just click and not start take off the starter and take it to your local parts store and they can check it for you

See that's the thing though. It's not click click click click. It's just click. Then dead but I will have that checked. Would it also cause a charging problem too

To be quite honest. I really don't think it's the starter. See it doesn't just click and all the lights and buzzer stays on. It's click and then completely dead. Like I don't have a battery in it dead

Please clean your battery terminals... like really clean them, and the wire connection that attaches to the terminal.
I PROMISE THIS IS YOUR PROBLEM (every time i go mudding sometime the next week this will happen to me)

you should try turning the key forward and going under the jeep and crossing the positive and negetive on the starter with a screw driver and if it starts your battery is not the problem and you probably have a problem with your ignition switch
