Car won't start. When I crank it, there is one loud click coming from the starter solenoid. I just bought the car and it ran well for a week. I am not sure this has anything to do with it, but the key is stuck in the ignition. I replaced the ignition lock cylinder, and it is still stuck.

The loud click is the starter solenoid engaging but not making a good contact on the internal terminals, I would suggest to get a new starter. But first just make sure the main battery feed to the starter is tight and clean and the battery is fully charged.
