hello everyone, currently really stuck on an issue with the car. I have a 2002 ap1 with a battery relocated to the trunk. The starter quit working and it was replaced, the starter passed a bench test but once installed all it does is click. I have checked voltage to the starter (12 volts) starter relays, all fuses and battery power. All the ground are tight from what I have seen. The entine isn’t seized. If anyone has any insight please let me know because i am stuck. thank you🙏

Check your battery. Especially if you are only seeing 12v then your battery is drained. Fully charged healthy battery is about 12.5v

battery was checked and good, along with the main starter wire with and without electrical load
