Fixed water pump and jeep clicks when you try and start it?

Asked by Kayla Apr 12, 2024 at 06:28 PM about the 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My water pump went out so a friend of mine replaced the
water pump. After it was supposed to be fixed my jeep
wouldn't start...it just clicks one time. Before they took
apart everything I didn't have any issues with it starting.  
I've bought a new battery and just replaced the starting
not even 6 months ago. Any suggestions

Bad electrical connection. Jeeps are known for corrosion in the battery cables. So look there first.

I replaced the battery. Starter was replaced 6 months ago. Solenoid? Okay I will mention that.

Did you install the serpentine belt correctly? Take the belt off and see if it starts.
