Since my suspended license, I have not been driving or started the car for about 5 days. Monday to be exact. I live in Cali, not THAT cold.

Battery still good because everything powers up ok.

Might be the alarm, but everything works fine from what I see and hear.

My guess is starter might've siezed up due to not started in a long time?

Has anyone know about this and what can I do to start it?

I will try hitting the starter to try to break it up come tomorrow.

Thanks for your replies.!

 

Heres what happens when I turn the key.

No crank, lights don't dim

I hear relays clicking, I think this might be my alarm.

Hope that helps

 

starter fried...... and that has nothing to with not using your car. My car is ben siting in my garage for a month now.. dur to a long commute $$$$ too much gas not enough money.,.. long story......check the starter and fuses ...

 

starter fuses? what do u mean? How would it pop if i hadn't touch the car

 

don't know but it is a start......remember fuses can go as easy as 123... the starter,, can go easy too... get a wrench anbd hit the starter a few times..do not break it please...... and take a look at all the fuses.....

 

have u tried chargin the battery? u should charge it cause even if the battery has power to tunr on lights, sometimes it still doesnt have enough to start the car...

 

yep, he is right. I had this problem. All the lights still came on. i thought i shorted something when i swapped my i35 horn into mine(didnt work) and my car didnt start. I found out later that i left the car stereo on and when i went to start it, all i heard was ' tick tick tick tick' I jumped the car, baby started right up.

 

he said his lights dont dim, that means the starter isnt taking any juice at all, the battery is fine.

 

check the starter GROUND...sometimes it comes loose, or corrodes to the point where you cant start the car, and all you hear is a click. Also, check your clutch inhibitor switch. Check your fuses, and all relays that go with starting. I have a good feeling your starter's not "fried"

 

Give it a jump, lol should of been first thing you should of tried, lights dont necesesarily dim when car needs jump

 

im gonna go with bad alternator.

 

Thanks for all your replies, well I tried jump starting it like you said and yea it starts right up.

I do hear the tick tick tick tick maxxed, but after lettiung it run for like 10 mins it still wouldnt start after I turn it off.

I am shopping for a new battery now. I am looking into optimas as I heard so much about them. Anyone know a site that I can get a cheap price?

CHeapest I found was I think 139 shipped hows that?

Thanks again guys!

 

Try jumping the alarm relay (don't mess anything up!).

Maybe you ran out of starter fluid ...................LOL

 

I don't get it
