1997 Ford Taurus Automatic

My car won't start and it's not the battery. It makes a clicking sound but it seams like it just isn't turning over. My dad put a new coil in but that didn't fix the problem. I wasn't haveing any problems with it before and so it wass unexpected when i got in my car after work and it wouldn't start. Any ideas?? If you have need any more info you can email me at sunshinekim2010@live.com

If clicking and engine not turning
you had already checked the battery and full
check battery terminals
clicking is not enough power to the starter
suspect
battery --------battery terminals ----------wiring
