I have a 01 Dodge Stratus 2.7L. I replaced the battery 3wks ago and now the car won't start. It just clicks. I think it might be the starter but any help would be appreciated.

Check the battery if its multiple clicks your hearing its a sign of dead battery or bad connection to starter. if battery is low charge and test also test altenator. not uncommon for new battery to be bad. If you get it charged most major parts stores can test battery and altenator at no cost. If it is a single click it may be starter if so give it a gentle rap(s) while hsving someone hold the key in start psition. If this has been helpful an accept would be appreciated or if you need more info let me know thank you Bill.
