6th Gen ('00-'05): 2001 Monte Carlo no start
My son has an `01 Monte and it has a no start issue.
First of all the car has been sitting for about 6 weeks since he is now leasing a new vehicle. I have been starting it several times a week until this week when the battery died. my charger wouldnt charge it so I took it to Auto Zone and they put it on their charger and charged and tested it. Battery showed as good so I reinstalled it and it is holding a charge but now the car wont turn over. No clicking grinding, nothing except the dash light\s coming on as they would in a normal start situation. I cycled the passlock/pass key and moved the gear selector to neutral to see if I could jar the Neutral control switch and stll nothing. my next thought is the starter. What are your thoughts??

Greetings,
You can test your starter by locating the crank relay and jumping it using a small piece of wire or even a paper clip.
From the bottom left pin to the top right and if it cranks over then it is not the starter and that means you have a pass lock security issue.
