Default 01 S2000 won't start

I just drove out to a jobsite here and when i got here after a minute i went to move it and soon as i pressed the clutch in and pressed the start button, all the lights went dim, and i get a constant clicking from one of the fuses in the fusebox. It correlates with the immobolizer light on the dash.

car just buzzes lowly when i press the start button.

What wonderful timing. Any other suggestions? I can't test this shit at all as i'm nowhere in any position to do so.

Pop start it down hill or have a few people push you, or jump start it.

Go get your alternator tested. If it passes, you either left something on in the car or you need a new battery.

Was the battery, got it tested and it wouldn't charge or pass test.

Got new battery and all is good.
