2002 Ford Windstar mileage: 50,000. My Windstar has given me no problems. However, I just used the car an hour ago, then went out again and it wouldn't start. The lights came on, radio on, nothing but a click. We tried jump-start and nothing worked. Any ideas?

Here are some things to check. Load test the battery. Check that the battery cable connections are clean. Check for 12 volts to starter solenoid with the key in the start position. These things should be checked first then the ignition switch, starter and starter solenoid. One of these may be faulty.
