Maybe your battery lost charge?

tap the starter and then try it again...if you are manual push start it. and then after its all nice and warm turn it off and see if your battery has a full charge now.

hey guys. thanks for the insight again. I checked the chiltons manual and it said to make sure that the automatic transmission was in park all the way so i checked it and it was so i put the car in neutral and back in park and it started right up!!. Kinda wierd but thanks again for advice.

The starter shouldn't have clicked at all if it wasn't in park. Either way glad you got it running.
