Hi,
I was back from the beach yesterday I turned my car off to wash it to head to church and it was dead.
I could hear the fuel pump and have a strong battery, I double checked it was in park properly (auto trans) and still nothing?
Any ideas maybe starter solenoid?
Thanx

To start the engine you need fuel and ignition spark. Do you have the second?
PS: How did you wash the car? Did you wash the engine?

Make sure it’s in park and foot on break. Check fuses under hood. Good luck!

Praise God, I realized the position of the starter was accessible from the top of the
motor compartment. I did the old back yard trick and beat on it!!
BAM that did it STARTED RIGHT UP!!
THANX

Congrats!
PS: I forgot to ask if the starter was working when you tried to start the engine.
