My car won't start, opinions appreciated!
I am assuming it's just the starter. The battery isn't dead and the alternator is charging fine. It has been rough starting like it isn't getting enough UMPH to start, but just enough to get it to start. It did this a few times and finally just now, nothing! Turn the key and nothing, no clicking nothing. Could it be the fuel pump? The car was running fine and normal as it usually would when I would get it to start. I didn't get a check engine light while driving either, checked the codes and nothing. Your opinions are appreciated, thanks!

If theres no clicking sound at all it's usually the battery, if your sure the battery, and the terminals as well are good (try cleaning the connections maybe) you might look at the connections at the starter and the solenoid, if all that's ok then it's the solenoid i think, cuz if it's the starter i beleive the solenoid will still give that 'click',...it could possibly be the ignition too. A good way to check is see if your lights work, if so, not the battery
