I'm no mechanic and I was wondering if someone could help me diagnose my car, an 02 Mitsubishi Lancer ES.

When I turn my key part-way, I can listen to my stereo & move my windows up and down. When I try to turn it over, it tries but won't catch. I've had my battery die before and when that happened there was always clicking. After I tried and tried to turn it over it started to make a noise after trying so many times. But this time its not clicking its more like popping. I can also here the slight buzz (which i was told is the fuel pump).

I tried jumping the car and it doesnt work. Also it was around 0 degrees outside yesterday when i tried to start my car. Today its about 20 and still no luck. Could somethin be frozen?

Possible Related Note: I did have a 1000 Watt amp & 2 12" subs but I sold them last week. All the wiring is there, but I took the fuse out next to my battery so the wire in my trunk wouldn't be hot.

My guess: I think my starter is probably shot, but I don't want to run out and buy a new one. If it is the starter, how hard are they to replace? It's sitting in my driveway and I don't really want to take it anywhere because I'm trying to save up for a new car. I can push my car down to my buddies garage if needed.

Thanks everyone in advance for the help.

 

is your car stick or auto if its stick try to push the car and pop the clutch and start it if it starts its the starter that is bad
