My car stopped working a week ago today so September 19, 2009. It has full power in the car except the radio wont turn on. The battery and fuses are all good. I replaced the starter and solenoid, and I also replaced the ignition switch. It still won't turn over and it doesn't even try to turn over.

Ya it's not cranking over at all. When it first happened you couldn't hear anything but the fuel pump. After I replaced the starter/solenoid the only thing you still could hear was the fuel pump. Then I changed the ignition switch it would make just a click sound just one. But it's still not coming close to turning over.

Okay since you've changed the ignition switch that takes it out of the pic.

Get a heloer to hold key at crank position and check for power at the small terminal that has the purple wire-if you have check the battery terminal connection on it-if okay -retest the starter If not do below

Make sure the battery has atleast 12.4 voltage or better

Check and test the ign 3 fuse 30amp, starter relay, and park/neutral switch-Let me know
