The vehicle listed above is a Grand Cherokee. I replaced the battery and I just get a clicking noise when I turn the key over. What is the next thing to check?

Just so I understand, does the engine crank and not start or does it just click when you turn the key?

If it turns over and does not start then we need to follow this guide. Basically this is either fuel, ignition, or compression.

If it just clicks and does not start then it is most likely a starter. Here is a guide that talks about this part:

If you are not sure, just get a video of what it is doing and we can figure it out. Thanks
