Default 2013 accord gives clicking sound upon start up attempts

My 2013 Accord gives the dead clicking sound when attempting to start up for several tries. Then suddenly starts up after trying again after several failed attempts. This has been happening everyday for the past two weeks. Is there anything I can do to fix this myself? Thanks.

First thing to do is to clean the battery post and cable terminals
Then follow the negative cable to chassis ground and clean the contact points
See if that helps. If not then there are other things to look at.

Thanks. Tried it but no change. How much can I expect to pay for a starter motor?

Depends upon where you buy it.
And the quality you want.
