Wont Start now after prev starts with 3-4 key cycles, batter=ok, starter=ok
several weeks ago it took 3-4 key cycles switching off and on for the car to finally engage, turn over, and start. Otherwise nothing, no clicking, no noise, just lights/gauges/etc. working....... Now no response with trying to start with numerous key cycles, still only lights/gauges/etc. but nothing from under the hood, all quiet.
Battery/terminals tested fine and Starter removed and tested fine.......????

Do you have another key you can try? Could maybe be an ignition switch issue. The pins can get oxidized inside. You can test it to see if this may be your culprit. Info HERE.

Hello, Replaced the starter since I had old one out, but step #2 was ignition switch and replaced with a new one. All clear and started right away. For anyone else, start with Clutch Ignition switch lock sensor, then ignition switch, then starter in that order of painlessness. Thanks to all!
