6th Gen ('00-'05): No Crank No Start
#1
No Crank No Start
Any help would be much appreciated, my Monte was fine, drove home normally parked it and next day nothing, no crank-no start. I have not had any problems with this car in five years other than replacing a MAF. Thought it was the battery as battery was 4 years old and its been cold in Ohio. Replaced it and no change, still no crank-no start. Tried both the 10 min security relearn and the 30 min security relearn-no change. All fuses and relays test good. I don't know where to go from here.....help

The only thing I can suggest you try and this is just a wild guess. Sometimes when the steering wheel is cranked to much to one side it can have an issue when you start and also the shifter I believe has a contact point that may allow the car not to start.
Also take a look at the fuses as they may be blown, when the battery was replaced, sometimes it happens.
Ground wire can be corroded and you may not see it or it may not be making the proper contact. It's surprising how many times that the ground wire has been an issue and a pain. Good Luck

I don't think steering column is binding as it is straight in the driveway. I did try to put car in neutral and start-same response-nothing, so put back in park. I will check the fuses again when I get home, never occurred to me to check again after I changed the battery. Thank you for trying to help me.

yeah, I thought that too, but replaced ignition switch with no change. Recap-new battery, checked all fuses and relays-good, checked grounds-all ok, new ignition switch- with key in ignition chimes will sound, dash lights and radio all work, you can hear fuel pump energize-but then absolutely nothing happens. Oh yeah and I tried all the key relearn things.
