After months of my car working perfectly, I go outside to turn her on, and she won't even turn over. AT ALL. I didn't leave anything on last night, there's no way the battery could've drained out. I'm so confused! Does anyone know what's wrong?

LOL yes I have a full tank. And nothing works dude. Door ajar light, alarm clicker, lights. wipers, nothing electrical. I don't have a voltimeter to test anything either and it's way to early to knock on neighbor's doors frown.gif

look for blown fuzes, my friend thought his fuel pump was dead but it was just the fuze. if that doesnt work i would take it to a shop.

Okay well just for the hell of it I went outside and loosened the neg terminal and retightened it... now it starts. I think I need to maybe just clean the terminals with baking soda. Hopefully it's that quick of a fix!

It couldn't be my starter because NOTHING worked. If there's something wrong with the starter, it shouldn't affect things like alarm, door ajar light, radio, power locks, etc. Nothing electrical worked whatsoever. But it's fixed now. I walked up to Pep Boys (only about a mile) And got a terminal cleaner and that fixed it up. Looks like they were just dirty. All better now!

Happened to me not too long ago, tigten the terminals and think about rewiring your battery, it worked for my problem.
