Default Issues

I have a 95 Celica GT 5speed with the 2.2l. I was recently T-boned in the drivers door. I was able to drive the car to the side of road but once i shut it off it will not start now. I have full battery power. My starter just makes a Single Click everytime i turn the Key over. Is there a Killswitch for Collisions that i am unaware of? IF someone could please give me some input it would be very helpful!

Thanks

There usually is or the starter may have fragmented from the shock of the crash.

I was able to get my car started, there was no killswitch at all. I just tore down the air intake, and cruse control box, took starter off and had it tested. It passed with flying colors . When i was reassembling it i noticed a small wire had been knocked loose from my positive terminal and when reconnected it fired right up and still runs great.
