Alight so, I went to the store and my car was running fine. I had just put gas in about half a tank. When I went to turn on the car it wouldn’t start, I replaced the starter and the ignition relay but still nothing. All I hear when I turn the key is one click. Any Answers?

The lights and radio work fine.

Hello!

Even though the lights and radio are working it is possible that there is a charging system issue or that the battery is not capable of holding a full charge. These repair guides may be able to help you:
