Your battery is not giving enough power to start the car. It may be battery, alternator, voltage regulator or bad cables.

Likely low battery- the click is the starter solenoid trying to pull in, but not enough current to turn the starter motor. If it will start with a jump, either battery or charging system needs attention.

When i try to start my 91 corolla it just clicks i replaced the starter yesterday and it still just clicks yesterday i jumped it and it started right up today i tried to jump it and it still clicks?

i might be wrong but it could be the 'bendex'. this is the part of the starter motor that disengages it after the engine turns on. it might not be fully disengaged from the previous trip. sometimes all that is needed to get it to go is to rock the car foreward or back a little. hope that helps.
