I have a 1997 silverado Z71 350. Truck was running great when I parked it in driveway, I went back outside to leave and it wouldnt start. The truck is getting power, the radio comes on the windows work, but when you turn the key there is nothing, no ticking, nothing, it doesnt even make a sound like it wants to start. Could this be the starter or something else?

Do you have a spare key to try? Are there any security lights in dash on that should not be?

Have helper hold key at start position and tap on the starter if it cranks over-replace the starter. If not double check the battery and connection.
