Q: wont start

asked by on December 06, 2016

I just changed the starter a week ago and now the car won't start again. when i turn the key the starter doesn't crank and there is a light buzzing sound coming from the multiport fuel injector. All my lights turn on and I tried jump starting the car as well. I also checked my fuses as well and all of them looked fine.

My car has 190000 miles.
My car has a manual transmission.
