I replaced the alternator (went bad) over the weekend. Now all I get when I try to start the car is a "click click click", sounds like the solenoid working.

Only thing I can think of that would cause there to be any change from before I changed the alternator is that I didn't disconnect the battery and sparked the wire from the top of the alternator on the wrench as it all was going back together. Is there another fuse/relay that I'm missing?
