The car has power to everything but when I try to start the car, I get nothing. No clicking sounds or anything. When turning the key I don't lose power to my radio, windows or anything. When they key turns, nothing happens the engine doesn't attempt to start and no noise is made. Just dead silence.

Mileage is 100k+

If noting happens, the fastest way to trouble shoot is to check and see if power is gettig supplied to the Starter realy from the ignition switch. If you have power when the ignition switch is in the start position, then it is probably a bad relay or starter. If you dont have power, it is either a bad ignition switch, or neutral safety switch or anti-theft problem.
