alright his is what happened i was just driving my car i park to change my suspension then went to start it and it wouldnt crank. just like that it wouldnt turn over
ive tried
push starting
jump starting
banging the starter
changing some relays
checked fuses
tried new ground on starter

nothing works
i just hear a click comming for the fuse box in the engine bay on the drivers side and sometimes the starter will have a small click in it . When i push start it it sounds like its trying to start but it just dies out

I check the starter power cable and im getting power there i can also hear the fuel pump working. It just wont crank over. help me pleaseeeee

ALSO
the car was automatic converte to manual so you dont need to push the clutch in
and everything still works like lights radio ecu has power fuel pump everything .

It could possibly be the starter. Perhaps remove it, take it to a autopart store that can test to see if the solenoid is working.

check to make sure the signal wire that goes to the starter has juice when you turn the key
