Answer
Check the Battery Vokltage if OK, jusp across the solnoid on the finder wall (use 2 screwdrivers. check the wiring for a loose connection ot damage, If all OK then pull the starter and try to start (not mounted to see if it will turn) if it spins your motor may be frozen....good luck
Answer
As mentioned above you engine may be frozen from either a siezed part or something like hydrostatic lock. Or you could have also have a wiring problem where no voltage or not enough voltage is making it to you starter selinoid (which activiates the starter) or possibly even to the starter itself. I have seen battery cables that are loose on the battery that will make the car not turn over. Another possiblity is when you put the new starter in, that you got the wrong one from the parts store (it happens, thier fault usually not yours), or that you could have gotten the starter installed wrong so that it is binding. Some of these cars have shims that have to be installed correctly on the starter to prevent binding.
Answer
If the battery cables are not loose and the starter relay, starter, coil were wired up correctly, the problem may lie in a burnt-out fusible link in the starter system.
