First, check the battery connection to make sure it is tight and clean. If the connection is loose or corroded, it can cause issues with starting the car. If the battery is in good condition, the problem may lie with the starter motor itself. In this case, it's best to take your car to a mechanic for further diagnosis and repair.

Another thing to check is the ignition switch. If the switch is worn or faulty, it may not be sending the signal to engage the starter motor. You can try cleaning the switch or replacing it if necessary. Make sure to consult a mechanic for proper installation.

If you recently replaced the starter motor and are still experiencing issues, it's possible that the new starter is defective. Make sure to get it checked by a professional and replace it if needed.
