A) Do you have crank no start? (see entire write up)
b)No crank no start ,No dash lights?, ( battery, battery cables, ignition switch,,starter relay)

If you have symptom A then the affected items are , ignition switch, battery, battery cables, starter, starter relay ,coil, coil pack, ignition module ,Distributor cap ,rotor, (if applicable) spark plugs and wires.


.If the battery iS more than 5yrs old OR COMMING CLOSE TO IT DEPENDING ON ITS CURRENT CONDITION you may want to replace it.
If battery does not pass load test replace it.
Whatever you decide the rest of the items can NOT be checked out without a fully charged battery.
Check ignition switch and starter relay for B+ going to them and leaving them. Check starter circuit. Make sure B+ is making it to starter ( use a digital voltmeter). If B+ (12 volts) is making it to the starter and it doesn't crank then the starter is defective. Verify this by removing the starter and have it bench tested.

2003 Pontiac Montana starter solenoid or relay location?

What exactly does it do when you turn the Key? Are there any dashboard lights staying on that normally go out when you turn the key to position 2?
Does it do absolutely 'Nothing' with the dash lights staying on? Does it do nothing but the dash lights go off?
Dash lights go off and you get a 'Clunk' noise?
Absolutely nothing suggests security system or the actual ignition key/barrel. This often has a light on the dash shaped like a key. Nothing but the lights go off could be the starter solenoid. Lights of and a 'clunk' could possibly be the starter itself.
The solenoid will be bolted directly to the starter motor. It's the smaller barrel shaped section on the side of the actual starter motor.

Car wont turn over battery is ok

Check the ignition wire under dash first to see if it gets power. If not then wiggle key while in ignition. Sometimes they go bad. Also check fuses.

Had problems with starting , sometimes you turn the key and nothing , turn the key on off really fast then you would get dash board lights and she would start . then if you had to indicate it would cut...

This could be a tough one.

My gut instinct tells me the root of the not starting without turning the key back and forth is a ignition switch.

The water loss issue is likely unrelated. Suggest check hoses, hose connections, radiator, heater core, water pump, etc. for signs of coolant leakage.

Good luck with this!
