My 2011 sonata won't start and I just got a new starter installed about 5 months ago, everything else turns on inside the car, it just won't start. Tried jump starting that didn't work either.

SOURCE: car won"t start. starter turns. Happened once before. started after 30-45min.

I would start by banging the bottom of the gas tank while you are cranking it over. If this causes it to start, replace the fuel pump. If it still doesn't start, there is a valve on the fuel rail on the top of the engine (you may have to remove plastic cover). Remove the plastic cap on the valve, and while you have someone cycle the ignition to the run position from the off position, depress the center tab on the valve and see if gas comes out. If it doesn't, replace the fuel pump. If it does, let me know and I will help you further. (note: replace fuel filer at same time.)

SOURCE: '98 Lexus ES300 Won't Start--But Has New Battery!

If your is exhibiting the same signs as a dead battery it really sounds like your alternator is bad. If you are handy, you can remove the alternator and take it to an autoparts store like autozone and they will test it for you. This is not a hard job to do, usually 2 electrical connections, 3-5 mounting bolts and you have to pop the belt off. Just reverse it to install a new one. Good luck! - Nick

SOURCE: car want start factor security light flashing and

The factory security light will remain on - this is a standard feature indicating the car is dead.
First, unplug the hazard fuze in the engine bay (this will reset the ecu and remove the flashing)

Next, replace the battery with a new one (or one with proper charge) - keep in mind a small battery will not do anything for these cars, the engines require a lot to push them over (it isnt a honda)
*Make sure to clean the positive and negative battery cables from acid

Then just start it up :)

SOURCE: turn on ignition everything works but want start

sounds like a starter. if possible without getting hurt maimed or mutilated, try tapping on the starter (best done with a rod standing beside the car) while someone holds the key in the start position. if car starts (works about 50% of the time) it's the starter. otherwise, if all lites come on, radio works, etc but nothing when you turn the key, replace the starter

2011 Hyundai Sonata. It was stolen. When I got it back it wouldn't crank? Anyone have any clue what the problem may be? They drove the car completely out of gas so I got gas. Still no luck.

Question edited for clarity.
Question moved to model category.

'wouldn't crank' means it doesn't turn over, you turn the key and nothing happens, no click, no starter, the engine doesn't move.

or

Do you means it does crank and turn over but it doesn't fire or start?

If it ran out of fuel it will have burnt out the fuel pump. The gas provides cooling and lubrication for the pump and they burn themselves out in less than 5 minutes. The people that took it will have been trying to start it when it stopped. Get a garage to check fuel pump pressure.

2011 Mazda CX-7 wont start. Battery is practically new. Barely 6 months old. When I turn the key, everything comes on. However, it won't turn over. I hear a rapid clicking inside. Like a turn signal, just...

Sounds like you either have a low voltage problem or a poor connection. I would lean towards poor connection. Remove and clean the battery cables and re-install them ensuring that they are clean and tight and try again. Also, look for signs of corrosion inside of the insulation of the cables. You could have a bad cable causing a high amp draw to the starter,

Car won't start, fan sound under hood.

Try turning everything off ,ignition radio, heater A/C or whatever . Open your hood and take off the negative battery terminal. Leave it off for a couple of minutes. Then reconnect it then try it.

Check all cables and fuses and make sure the battery is good. If that does not work, it may be the starter which needs to be replaced. Since it clicked once it means that current did go through but stopped at the starter.

Clicks but won t turn over

Most likely a bad or low battery or bad connection or bad solenoid or starter or combination of any of them. Those lights will mostly stay on till the engine cranks before going off.

Replaced ignition switch, key, battery and now car wont start after running then it will start up hours later..is it the starter?

When key is turned the starter is energized by a solenoid that applies power directly from the battery to the starter. Any loose connection will prevent the starter from turning over. The solenoid can also have burnt spots on the contacts inside case that will prevent current from getting to the starter. A click noise is the solenoid energizing so
if all connections are tight and the battery is good the only
other problem is the starter may be bad. Brushes on the
starter may have seen their life ended. this is usually identified by tapping on starter with a hammer while trying to start engine. If starter spins, replacement is needed.

2011 hyundai sonata won't start. battery seems fine. loud clicking/knocking when i turn the key. would it be the starter?

Unusual for the starter to fail on a one year old car.
You are having it towed to a dealer for warranty repairs, right ?
