1999 Dodge Intrepid 6 cyl Wheel Drive Type unknown Automatic 125000 miles

I had my battery and alternator replaced, now when I go to start my car it just clicks 3 or 4 times before it starts. Or sometimes it wont start. Any suggestions? My battery light dosen't come on any more. Does the computer need to cleared? Could something not be connected right. Help? THANKS JJET3JR

Sometimes it wont start

Get a helper to put key in start position-you go underneath and bang on the starter-if it kicks over-you have a bad starter-if not check for power at solenoid-no power backtrack it to the starter relay/transmission range switch/neutral safety switch at the tranny and ignition swtich.

Also double check the battery connection.
