car wont start, crank
I went to start my car yesterday and it wouldn't start. It won't even crank. The battery is hood. What else should I look for?

Re: car wont start, crank
Battery only stores the power , it still has to get to the starter ( and the starter has to be working)
More info needed.
Does dash light up , do you hear any noises , clicking , etc?
Your car has VATS; have you tried a different key or cleaning your one and the contacts inside the Ign?
Have you jumped the starter to prove starter actually works?
Lots of things to consider

Re: car wont start, crank
Could be something as simple as a bad or loose battery cable or dead battery to something as aggravating as the VATS. Vetteoz is right. More info is needed

Re: car wont start, crank
had the starter checked and it is good. all the light work as normal. there are no abnormal noises when i attempt to start the car. The gauges all "peg" ( go to the right) as they normally do. Ive tried both keys that i have and nothing changes.
