The car won't start. I got a new starter relay and it started few times and now it won't start. Battery is fully charged. Now every time I try to start it, the only thing I hear is the starter realy clicking. I pushed it and started the car that way to get home.
Could it be my starter? or what could it be?
Thanks.

Wanted to add that before I changed the starter relay the car had the same simptoms (just clicking when wanted to start the car).
Also I had someone try to start it and I noticed that there was no power coming to the starter coil and that's why I thought that is was the starter relay so I changed it.
I checked all grounds and they look clean and tight.

The starter has been checked and it works. The clutch switch works and the plastic that pushes the clutch switch is in good working order as well.
What could it be that the starter is not getting the power. I had someone under the car while I tried to start it and no power is coming to the starter so the relay? is not sending power to the starter. Why is that since I've just replaced the relay?.

make sure all your grounds to the block are tight and clean. make sure the power cable to the starter is the same. if so its probably the starter.

Look for the clutch switch and the amber colored grommet that pushes the switch near the fire wall. The gromet crumbles find pieces of plastic like materal on your floor mat. Other than that have some one craw under the right side and tap the starter with a small hammer while your turning the key. Try not to drive over them.

u might of burned up your new relay.
check your grounds all of them.
thourly clean your connections.
check all you fuses.
go to your other car and swap batteries.
put a charge back on the batt on slow charge over night, then try again.
turn on car and anything and everything you can turn on. seeif car dies. if not then disconnect positive wire from battery while car is running see if it stops running.
take car to advance or murrays or autozone or napa and ask them to check your batt and alt.
more than likely it is your starter.
try having someone turn over the key while you hit starter with hammer or a baseball bat if it starts it is your starter.
also check your cooling fluid and fans and make sure they are working correctly or youll burn a new starter up.
make sure u spend a few dollars on a haynes manual.
