A car that won't start can be caused by many different problems from low fuel pressure to no spark. In this case, I have no clue what the problem is and I go though my methodology to figure out the problem. (Spoiler alert) It ends up being a bad battery which is probably the most common no start problem.

Note: Make sure you check the manufacture date of the battery. A lot of times batteries sit on the shelf and which decreases their age and you will need to replace the battery a lot sooner.

I troubleshooted as instructed in this video, and realized that the clutch safety switch was not working properly. I just pressed on the clutch really hard, turned the key, and the car turned on. We're replacing the safety switch tomorrow. Thank you! You saved us hundreds of dollars in repairs... for free!

Hey, Chris! Turning on headlights and dimming of the control board indicators is not a necessary the checkmark for bad battery. Some wehicles have this dimming functionality! Also as you mentioned the specialized tester shows the correct status only if the battery is fully charged. You brought a discharged battery to the store to test - which means that te tester has more than 70% chance to wrongly detect a dead battery. As an electritian I must stress out this missing checkmark: Before you get to the store to test the battery, do charge it! If the charged battery show a decreased value of CCA and other tested parameters, than the battery needs to be replaced. Thank You, for your contribution to expanding public knowledge.

Just a few KISS methods I've seen in my line of work. Check the battery cables to see if they are clean and tight. Have had a few occasions where that happens. Even had a woman whose husband used zip ties to hold the negative cable on. Also had an incident where a woman had her steering wheel locked. Simply turn the key and steering wheel at the same time. Lastly, I had a customer that hit something in the road and broke the bushing loose on her transmission shifter. Plenty more stuff but just some other things to consider.

Happened to me a couple of weeks ago (what you experienced in the first thirty seconds of your video). Obviously, it was time to replace the battery (on a Tuesday). Come Thursday and the alternator went out, so I head to get that replaced on my 2003 Honda Civic EX Coupe. On Friday, the battery light began flickering on my dash panel after lunch, and over the weekend it was getting worse, so I likely had encountered a problem with the charging system. Took it back to the mechanic on Monday and it took them a couple of days to troubleshoot the problem. It ended up being a faulty alternator from O'Reilly's that had been installed the previous Thursday, so likely the voltage regulator was the faulty part within the alternator. Sometimes it pays to do research and consult with a mechanic to diagnose serious issues (thought it may just be something as simple as a faulty alternator). Need to change out my air filter and cabin air filter this week before I forget. Also learned how to jack up my daughter and will change her oil in 2k miles after watching ChrisFix's tutorial on that. :)

Seven years, dang. Mine lasted a decade (2011 model Actyon Sports, the only pickup truck made by South Korean car manufacturer) and it still manages to start the engine in -20C (negative four degrees in Fahrenheit or something after a week after last engine running). I already flushed break fluid, engine oils like 8 times, power steering fluid, differential oil (Koreans call it axle oil tho) and even blinker fluid (lmao) thanks to you. It's time to swap out the battery now.

If you think it's the battery, you should also check the fluid levels in the battery. Low fluid will prevent the battery holding charge. You can top them up with de-mineralised water and then charge them. This will fix them most times.

Sharing my experience with this same issue. Trying to start the car (Honda CR-V 2002 AT), all that happens is there is a single click sound coming from somewhere, and no cranking takes place. Tried multiple times, and the same just happens. I checked the terminal connections in the battery if they were loose; nope, they were nice and tight. Tried replacing the battery with a new one (since the old one had a history of being totally discharged a couple of months prior); the issue still persists. The problem all along was a blown fuse for the fuel pump. The fuse box was below the steering column. Good thing there were spare fuses with the correct ampere rating in the fuse box under the hood. Replacing the said fuse fixed my issue.

My moms 01’ Grand Prix se wouldn’t start this morning. It would crank and soon, the starter wouldn’t even go. The problem was a phone charger that does not shut off with the car, and so I unplugged it. few hours pass by and we jump it with the f150. Turns on and it’s all good. It still takes a little more cranking to turn over but after a little bit of idling, she’s all good.

Hey Chris! One month update, new battery is in the car, alternator is all good. Emissions control is also fixed. She starts like a dream and everything from clogged windshield washer lines to air conditioning has been properly repaired. Now all that’s left is a “Service engine soon” light. I’m so happy with this car and it’s in its final stages of being a perfect, healthy, maintained vehicle for us! We are looking at a 2007 Cadillac Escalade with 173k miles and there are problems with the manifold bolts (common problem on these trucks) but when I check under the vehicle, I’m telling you this was the most clean anti-rust frame I’ve seen in a while. My dads 09’ suburban can’t say the same. I hope we get it, it’s only $11,500 with minor fixes to be done to it. And lastly, I want to thank you for all your help with car repair, care, and diagnostic videos. I apologize in advance if I shortened your time on anything, and I wish you the best of luck in future projects!

Chris, you may want to put up a small warning about changing the battery. I managed to damage my ECU when changing mine. It meant I had to take the bus for two months whilst I figured out the issue.

Hi Chris, I got a 2003 Lancer ES. With 90k miels on it. The car has been solid for almost 15 years now, except a few years ago it started getting hard to start. When you turn the key it cranks and either doesnt start or starts like 10 seconds later, usually doing a second try will start it. At first this was pretty rare, would do this maybe one out of 20 starts. Now a few years later it does it almost every time. I watched your fuel pump replacement video and I tried doing the whole thing with moving the key to on position, then off, then on etc without starting to get the pump to pump more fuel to see if thats the issue. That didnt work, it still cranked. What does work EVERY single time is if I pump the gas pedal once before I try to start it starts first try within a second. The car never stalls, idles smoothly etc.... and other than this starting issue its solid. What do you think it is? because it doesnt seem like its the fuel pump, because it would stall right? and the key trick would work if it was. And It doesnt seem like its injectors, because... again it would stall or idle roughly. My spark plugs, ignition coils, belts etc have been replaced 25k miles ago. If you need more info or/and can help, please let me know :) Great videos! I changed my coolant, bled the breaks, restored headlights, changed oil all thanks to your videos.

Man this guy is a True about evrything Proof:- I was with my family on road trip for a marriage occasion. The road was not opened for some reason, I Just stopped my car on a patrol pump and went to wash room, when I came back and tried to start my car it wont start, luckily a mechanic's shop was nearby so I too my car There. I tried to jump start with a car and a battery but couldnt start as it was a honda civic 2014 and the car was small which tried to jumpstart. The mechanic took my battery and changed it. White he was charging this video came in my mind and i started watching it. After he put the battery back the car did start up but the time was reset and same happened in this video and then I changed the battery of it.
