After light (but expensive) collision damage to the left rear wheel our car
would also not start. Did not discover the fault until after body repairs completed. Turned out to be damaged fuel pump. I cannot understand how this impact would damage the pump but it did, YMMV. The pump is in the gas tank and is very expensive (600 C$ ?) and requires? dropping the tank to replace. Innsurance paid for replacement but they would only spring for a used pump.

If you hear a clicking near the center console, it is possible that there is
a blown fuse. The fuse controls something or another that makes sure that your car is in Park or Neutral before allwoing the startup process. Its worth a try anyway.

To much missing info in this post. When does it click? When you turn the
key to start the engine? If so the clicking is on the other side of the Cowl (people mistake it as an interior noise). The starter isn't able to engage the flywheel (a) or flexplate (m) because your battery doesnt have enough JUICE. Jumper your car and it will start but you still have to fix the cause of your low voltage.
