I got a new battery but still, I can hear a click but the car won't start. Also, I

Switch on the headlights and try to start it. Do the headlights stay nice and bright? If so it's most likely the starter is bad. Try hitting the starter a few times with a hammer. If this gets you going it's definitely the starter. It'll need to be replaced. Hope that helps! Jim
