The car wont turnover. All it does is making a clicking sound. I bought a new starter n put it in but nothing happened. I got a new battery n put it in, but nothing happened. Our next thought is to replace some relay switches. Any ideas about tthe problems and any other possible solutions? Thanks to all that help.

Possibilities if you've already replaced the battery and starter:
Starter relay
Corroded, loose or defective cables between the battery and relay or between the relay and the starter motor.
Starter selenoid, but that is usually replaced as a part of the starter motor.
Low voltage in the battery. Should be around 12.3-12.8 volts with the engine not running.

need to replace the altenator the clicking sound is a warning of having no power to turn the motor over. with a bad altenator it canot recieve juice from the battery. the starter was fine no need to replace it take the alternator out, take it to auto zone and have it checked. most likely its bad

Stop being a parts replacer! Get a manuel and follow it. Troubleshooting is art. Teach yourself.
