1. Mr. and Mrs. Dziwulski Says: The car was working fine today in later on when i turn on the key nothing happen no noise , The battery is good because the light come on when you try to turn it on. it seem like the engine dont want to turn. Any Suggest ?

1995 Saturn SL1

2. Lakwanda Phillips Says: I think you should still check the battery though. If a car does not start, the flywheel will not spin and turn on the engine. In order to start the car, the battery needs to be able to get the starter engaged.

It is helpful to inspect the power wire (red) from the battery to the starter. The alternator needs to keep the battery going. Otherwise, this is an indication of a dead battery. Hope this helps.

3. Frankie Says: Just because the lights come on don't mean the battery is good. It takes much more power to turn the engine than to run a light bulb. You could also have a bad battery connection. Try wiggling the terminals on the battery. If loose, you need to clean and tight them.

4. Stephen Says: Check your cables, make sure they are clean and tight, also check any grounds going to the chassis, make sure they are free from rust and tight. If it still doesn't start, then the problem is possibly a bad fuse, a bad starter or starter relay.

all fuses
power at ignition coil
power at distributor
power at spark plugs

Have the following tested at an auto parts store:
battery
starter
alternator

6. Stephanie Says: might be a port connection problem at the battery, take cables off the battery, clean it up and reconnect
