I just bought a used 92 nissan sentra and it had a new battery but the alternator went out. I replaced it and it still won't start. I can push start it and then she runs fine, but all she does is click and try to start. What else could be wrong?

Is the new alternator putting out and reconditioning the battery if so do below

Hold key to start position -find the black and white wire at the starter solenoid look for power-power there tap the starter if it kicks over-the starter is bad-if no power. Find the clutch interlock switch at the kick panel on the connector you will see a brown and white and a plain black jump this two together and attempt ot start-if it starts the switch is bad. If not find the clutch interlock relay at relay box left front of engine compartment look for power at black and white-no power the igniton switch is faulty-if power is there the relay is bad.
