I have a 1995 gmc sonoma that has been running with no problem then all of a sudden yesterday I was out and about when I stopped at a store and cut off the engine I tried to start it back up and nothing happened it would not turn over or anything when turning the ignition switch the lights on the dashboard ( check engine soon light etc came on as usual) but nothing else happen didn't even attempt to turn engine over or anything else checked battery etc no problem there any help would be greatly appreciated
Make sure all the ends on your battery cables are clean and tight. I got a tow in because my car would not try to start even tried boosting to no avail. All my lights and radio was working but they said the cable was corroded and would not let the full power work. We replaced the battery cables and worked like new now.

Maybe the main Ignition relay in your fuse box or on the firewall. Faulty relay can cause intermittent no-power situations.

Like to other guy said, give it a tuneup. Also try SEAFOAM to clean carb up of slug. Also check to make sure the butter fly for the choke has not come loose, causing it the choke it down. Failed choke pull-off.
SOURCE: sonoma,check engine light doesnt turn on
dont worry about it ,perhaps the bulb has blown ,if car runs ok leave well alone

You have to remove the stering colum covers and in the ingnition key drum on the side there is a little hole, press the inside pin and pull the key ccylinder out, you can buy on autozone or pep boys.

Hi and welcome to FixYa!
Two things to look at. Starter and ignition coil. If one of this is faulty there will be no current to burn fuel. I strongly suggest that you replace it resolve the issue.
Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa! Have a good one!
