Like Ray said. Check the battery first. If the battery is good, replace the ignition switch. Bad connections on the inside of it.

You probably have a dead battery. If it's more than 5 years old and you live in a temperate climate, get a new one. If you live in place with a harsh climate, such as hard winters or extremely hot temperatures, replace it at 4 years. Otherwise, it may be a simple ground wire from your under hood fuse box that may be corroded. Use a wire brush and clean up the terminals before reconnecting the battery and and ground connections.

2000 1.8t vw passat wont start

There are many possible issues that can cause the problem you are experiencing. A bad starter, a bad ignition switch, relay, wiring circuit for ignition / cranking.

If you are mechanically inclined, I recommend you begin to test all components to narrow your possible problem.

My car wont start and my windows dont work

Check battery connections and cables. Ground may be broken. Remove cables and clean battery posts then reconnect cables.
Check ignition switch, replace as needed.

1997 toyota Rav4 2L will not turn over or start, no clicking sound when turning the key! battery and wires are good and ignition relay switch has been replaced, lights and radio work

Did you check for power going to the starter. could be a connection on that side of things. should be able to pull starter and jump batt to it to see if gear pops out and spins.

2004 Grand Am wont start, doesnt even make a clicking sound...

This sounds like the Ignition Starter Switch. It should be on the left side of the steering column.....right under the steering wheel. If you go to an auto parts store they should be able to show you what the part looks like.

Thanks,
Andrew
