I have a 1997 intrepid, it has been working find intil one day I turned off the car and the next day it would not turn over. It trys to but its like not getting any spark or gas. All the lights come on fulids are good fuses look good, I reset some of the little module relays and still nothing and yes there is gas in the car. What the heck is going on, I am going to have to tow it to a service station and shell out money. If its just a easy fix I would like to do it my self, any one have this problem or know of a fix.

Thanks

try this: disconnect an ignition coil and a screwdriver and ground the screwdriver somewhere on the engine to see if there's spark. Also, when you turn the key on, listen for a hum coming from the back around the gas tank. If you have neither, you could have a bad ASD (automatic shutdown) relay.
