Starter problem possibly

I gave my girl a jump boost this morning and everthing went well except for the wires touching once while removing them from the terminal and what a spark so early in the morning. I got into my car afterwork and it started right up no problem. I stopped at a gas station to get gas and when I started the car up it just went click. To make a long story short I never had a problem with the car starting up. Now the shit won't start and it just goes click. Is it possible that somehow I F....up the starter ????

I don't think it's the battery. I had given my self a jump start and it won't start. When I turn the ignition it just goes click and nothing.

i think u fried ur alternator by arching it, and that being bad drained ur battery. for some reason our alternators are extremley sensitive.

with the ignition module you would have to use a tester to see if the starter is even getting a signal from it.^^ that's a good idea if you don't have one

After removing my starter (EASY REMOVAL) I had it checked and indeed it was bad so I bought a remanufactured one for only $100 W/Lifetime warranty.
