last night i came home parked the car, the next morning came out and the car wouldn't start... i turned the key and theres nothing at all, my radio comes on and the fan will run... so we tried archin the starter and the starter just spins its not turnin the motor over..

so i have 2 problems here....
one the starter isn't engaging so im going to get a new starter but...

when i turn the key there is nothin so somewhere inbetween the key and the starter something happened i don't know what it could possibly be i don't even know where to look if anyone has any thoughts on this it would be great.... thx alot

 

Replacing the starter and solenoid along with checking the wire connections should solve your problem. Some people may say the problem is VATS, however you have said that even jumping the starter would not turn the engine and that the starter just spun but would not engage. VATS would not cause that.

 

I agree. Replace the starter and solenoid and then check all the connections.
