If you got into an accident that was the other driver's fault and can his insurance decline repairs to your car?

I'm unsure if you mean the other carrier is denying liability, or they've totaled your car and are refusing to repair it.
If they're denying liability, and you believe the other driver is at-fault, you have a couple of options. One, you can go through your own carrier (if you have full coverage), and they will complete their investigation and probably subrogate (ie, ask for their money back). If you don't have full coverage, and your carrier can't help you, you'll likely need to initiate a small claims action in court.
If the at-fault carrier has totaled your vehicle, but you're wanting it repaired instead, keep in mind that any insurance carrier will only pay you up to the actual-cash-value of the vehicle. If the repairs and related expenses (rental, supplements, etc.) get to a certain percentage of the actual-cash-value, almost any insurance carrier will total the vehicle.

Do you pay a deductible if the accident was the other drivers fault and their insurance is paying for repairs?
Yes, you do.
Why is auto insurance mandatory?
Driving is considered a privilege and not a right. Because it is a privilege drivers are required to prove they are financially responsible. Mandatory auto insurance is proof that drivers are financially responsible to cover damages or injuries in the event of an accident. Because most drivers cannot reasonably pay for the cost of repairs and medical bills they cause in an at fault accident, states require auto insurance to protect both third party drivers and the policyholder.
If both drivers in an accident are uninsured does it matter who was at fault?
Even if a driver was uninsured, the driver who was at fault is responsible for paying for repairs. Not having insurance does not take away responsibility.

In my experience, in a number of countries, Auto Insurance companies will not pay for repairs unless the repair is result of an accident. Then only what the car is worth.
How do you get an accident claim against own car when the car is fully insured?
Report the accident to your insurance company. If this was a single car accident - meaning yours- your insurance will have to pay for the repairs minus your deductible. If another party caused the accident you need to turn their insurance information over to your company and they will take it from there.
