My car won't start

Does the starter make a noise when you crank it? If not, first make sure you have 12+ volts in the battery and good battery connections. If the battery has less that 9 volts, then replace the battery. Try using a jumper box or a set of jumper cables from another vehicle to start the car. If you can see the starter, have someone strike it with a hammer while turning the key to the crank position. If it starts, replace the starter.

Without hearing it very hard to say.It actually just sounds like a bad battery & alarm,fuel pump,some relay is just not getting full power-Start with having battery tested-JT & Good Luck

When you turn the key to start does the starter engage an spin the engine ? or nothing happens .
the lights and music come on but the motor will not start when I turn the key ??????? Will not start how ?
crank - no - start or no crank no start . ????????

Won't turn over or won't start?

Has to turn over fairly fast

Check for fuel pressure & either spark or
injector pulse while cranking

if the lights come on you'r getting juice from the batt,if they go out when you crank the motor over batt is bad or you have bad batt connections

well if you have a dvom/voltmeter check the power at the starter terminals. the main terminal should have power all the time the key wire should have power only when the key is turned to crank engine. if you have power at both then i would start looking at grounds

try locking your car with the key and unlocking it with the key, leave it for 30 second or so between the locking and unlocking , the car thinks some one has tampered with it

Sounds like bad ignition switch.Check battery voltage it should be 12-12.6 volts.If its good check for power at starter on the switch side of solenoid if you don't have power its the switch if you do have power and it won't crank its the starter thats bad.

tickly problem this and i do not know the answer ,i have come across this before and the cause was the battery where the thing wouldnt give any reserve amp power but just activating the lights and ignition it then turns slowly then speeds up ,but i have also had the same problem or similar problem with a starter motor with the same symptoms ,nothing then another click and the thing works ,Now what i have had as well is a cheroke jeep with a weird quirk where it will not start ,cranks fine but doesnt start till you turn starter on three cranks and it starts first time on third crank and poor old dave my neighbour whos car it is has been very patient with me but even the local chrysler dealer couldnt cure it so iam not alone but then this is spain ,they said a new ECU which is what i said for free and they charged him a lot of money for my diagnosis .So treat your mechanic friend to a coffee from me please for answering this question for free .

correct, may be a bad starter, start there. test for power at small wire at rear of starter if theres power when key is held in crank position then replace the starter also make sure battery connectoins are clean and thight, good luck hope this helps.
