Test the voltage of new battery,Test voltage at starter connector with battery connected.
12 volt is what you should get.-------Not always but sometimes new batteries and starter even comes weak or bad.-----------

CAR NO START PROBLEMS:-----


It can be the issue with weak battery or faulty battery or if battery is ok,then its faulty starter causing the issue.

Replaced the fuel pump on 97 dodge mini caravan now motor wont crank like the battery is dead. tried jumping it - nothing. All lights work bright! What did I do wrong?

I would check the starter for voltage first - there is a starter relay that is grounded by the PCM. If the ASD relay is faulty the pcm won't have power. You should have battery power to the starter and power on the solenoid when you turn the key to start.
