replaced the starter cause it went out at my friends house,autozone was right around the corner so he took me there to get a new one.I put it in fired it up and went home.Few days later when i started the car up the started wouldnt disengage,so i took it back to autozone for a new one...did that 4 times before i got a good working one.Well apparently it ended up burning a wire or fusible link cause now i have a short in the ignition system.Then today my lock cylinder in the steering column went out.Key would get stuck and i couldnt remove it.Steering wheel would lock up in the run position and the lock cylinder would even lock without the key in it and it wouldnt let me turn the key at all and i i dont think my fuel pump is priming now

if all you get is a click with your car when trying to start it with the key, check your battery. i had that problem with my car. in theory you probally can bypass with the starter doing it that way and start it.

if that isn't your prob. i suggest a new cylinder. probally whats causing your problems. or a bad ground. on second thought redo your grounds while your at it.
