Default 2001 Galant Not Starting

I have a 2001 Galant and it is not starting. It just clicks when the key is turned. We bought a new battery, a new starter and we had the alternator checked. We've also made sure all spark plugs are fine and checked the fuel pump as well. All of that is fine and it still does not want to turn on. It was fine last week and one morning I went to leave and it would not turn on not even with a jump. I am at a lost as to what else it can be. Any ideas?

Yes, and the code was for the crankshaft position sensor. It was changed and the car still did not start. The code went away once it was changed but the next day it was back on and it came up the same code.

Did you change the Cam Sensor?

wont let the engine start.
