Engine Mechanical problem
2000 Ford Taurus 6 cyl

Car won't start. Tried jumping it - nothing. All it does is click. I am wondering if its the starter.

No crank condition:

Possibilities here could be the starter, starter relay, park and neutral switch/clutch switch and ignition switch assuming the battery and connections are good.

If you hear a click, then either the battery is weak, or the starter, possibly bad battery cable connections, check and clean both ends of BOTH cables! Dissconnect negative(-) first, and put it on last! If no click the starter relay is no good!
