Car will not turn over. Nothing happens when i hit the key.. I replaced the battery, ignition module, ignition coil, distributor cap, and rotor. Still nothing. Will not take a jump.

When the car died, it was idling up and down between 500 and 1500rpm. I put the car in reverse and car shut off. A few hours later the car started, i shut it off and now nothing. The interior lights still come on, along with the headlights.



Also, does anyone know how to access the onboard diagnostics.

Thank you, Chris.

Basic stuff here, no crank, is the secuirty lkite staying on, if not step 2, do you have 12v to the starter solenoid when cranking? Why were those parts replaced, they are unrelated to a no crank condition? Check for bad ground or cable connections also.
