I have a 2001 Ford Taurus SES with 113000 miles my oil filter leaked on my starter and possibly shorted it out. I have since changed the starter, tested the alternator and battery. My car still won't start. What else could it be? All lights on my dashboard light up and I have power but when I turn my key my starter just clicks as if it is not getting enough power.

Make sure the battery is fully charged. If the dome light dims a lot when you try to start it, the battery is probably low. If not, check to make sure the ground terminal is tight. If the battery isn't grounded well, you will have a lot of trouble getting the car started.
