A week ago tuesday I used my explorer. Turned on normally. Following day I put key in and ptoceeded to start it but nothing. Needles on dash board stayed "fluttering" for a couple of seconds almost as if it wanted to start but nothing. Battery and starter have since been replaced as needed. Alarm, radio, windows, and lights work.

Ok, so it does not crank

make sure connections are good and tight at battery and grounds on radiator support.

Check voltage at the starter motor

They put the computer on it and apparently it turns out that my explorer isnt recognizing the keys. Some how it wont respond to my key or the spare. Am looking into acquiring a transpondrr key to see if maybe that works.
