Dead batteries have enough power to turn on the lights you mentioned but under load (cranking ) there will be nothing. have a load test done on the battery to check for failing cell
I remember the same thing happening to a Ford car - when the battery was removed, the wire supplying power to the vehicle dropped onto the battery tray and was covered when the battery was replaced. The guy reconnected all the wires he could see but could not understand why his car remained dead.
I expect something similar has happened to your car.
If the problem is no crank, could be the security system, key switch, neutral safety switch, starter, cables, or battery. I would check for power at the starer and work back. Did you try it in neutral ?
will the engine crank when you turn the key, and will not start or does nothing happen when key is turned on. If nothing happens when you turn the key, you may have an dead battery. if it will crank and not start, may not be getting fuel or the engine isnt fireing. Check fuel first, then check to see if it the spark plugs are getting fire.
Starter Fuse? Possible failed ignition switch. Loose Cables on battery or starter. Starter not grounding properly. Bad starter Relay? Use Voltmeter check voltage going to main starter wire while someone cranks the motor if not power check power to starter relay while cranking if no power suspect ignition switch.
So when you turn the key nothing happens? From there you will want to use a multimeter to test the starter. Should be getting 12v at solenoid when you crank. If you are then sounds like bad solenoid on the starter. Then go from there. Thanks, Lee
