I just replaced the starter motor on the car as it had that click sound when I turned the key on. Battery was no good so I also put new one in.
As I finished putting new starter motor in and went to start it the thing made the same click noise.
Does anyone know what could be wrong with this? Would really appreciate some advice.

Check both battery terminal clamps, you should not be able to move by hand.
Check the electrical connections at the starter also that it is tight.
If the battery is good and the starter is good and the start clicks when attempting to start then the only thing left is wiring.
Let me know if you any questions
