replaced the battery.
replaced the starter.
and still nothing.
no clicking when trying to turn the engine over.
the dashboard lights come on, as well as the radio, when the key is in the on position.
the headlights work and are bright. not dim.
when turning over the key, the dashboard lights stay on but the radio until dies.

anyone have this problem.
i tried searching for the problem here but i'm not sure i'm wording it right so any help or suggesting or pointing me in the right direction is appreciated.
thanks.

 

Do you have another ignition key to try? Maybe your Immobilizer has malfunctioned.


There should be an icon on the dash to indicate if the Immobilizer is working (green key? Can't remember)


Might be a poor ground to the engine. Easy check: connect ONE jumper cable from the engine block to the battery (-) terminal. See if you get at least some clicking (indication that the starter is TRYING).

 

I had this problem too. It was the key. You just gotta get it reprogrammed or use a different key

 

So the engine does not crank while attempting to start?
Had your replacement battery passed load test?
Is it auto or manual
ON car with A/T points to look:
neutral safety switch (is letter P lights up in park?)
ignition switch (not key)
C101 connector next to ECU behind glove box (thick black wire)
Starter relay in fuse box under dash
PLEASE post starter DIY

 

Have you checked the fuses? Sometimes the 80A fuse will blow and that may prohibit the car from turning on.

 

The original poster is probably replacing the engine now
