No Crank No Start (The Most Common Causes)

- Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you attempt to start your car but nothing happens? You won't hear the cranking noise the starter makes when rotating the engine. This is known as a no-crank no start condition. The most common causes for a no-crank no-start are a dead battery, faulty relays & fuses, faulty neutral safety switch, bad ignition switch, faulty starter, anti-theft system, wiring issues/loose connections, seized engine, and computer system issues.

Saya mengalami masalah enjin tidak dapat start. Tiada tindak balas ketika kunci diputar ke posisi start. Namun semua isyarat indikator dashboard menyala seperti biasa. Walaupun masalah kereta saya belum selesai, namun video ini sangat membantu. Terima kasih, Tuhan memberkati anda 🙏.
This vid helped me! I put it in neutral and tried. Got it !
My 2001 SAAB cabriolet started playing up three years ago. Intermittent no start. Happened about once a month. Wife not pleased.
Usually cleared after 20 mins. but not always. First fix was to put two wires through to the starter relay and fire up with a standard 9V battery. 100%
Eventually tracked the fault down to a corroded terminal on the wiring loom connection to the bottom of the ignition switch. I had the whole thing apart and saw it. However one can just take off the plastic behind the key and squirt WD 40 into the little hole in the back of the aluminium casing which the key hole is mounted on. Strange that such a useful hole was put there........Plan to keep car until I am 100 (and it's 50 )
You are a GENIUS!!!
THANK YOU.
(it was the neutral safety switch)
Same I’m so upset haha
Thank so much for this video. Shifting to neutral and starting my Honda pilot did the job. What should I look into now ? To fix this issue
GREAT VIDEO!! Quick easy meat and potatoes, No BS long-winded explanation.
Neutral safety switch was the problem. Appreciate the info
How did you know it was the neutral safety switch?
@@tameracalloway6068go to 1:02 in the video
This vid is forever, nice vid
I appreciate you
Thank you so much. I was in a fix and came to CZcams for helpful tips and I found this video. I tried the neutral suggestion and boom, my car started. So happy I can get home with my car this night. Is the neutral switch faulty or why did that happened?
Thanks
Was stuck in a very bad situation put my car in Neutral and started it now
I am happy i could help!
Thank for you putting on neutral saved me
Glad I could help
Man you have no idea how much this helped 💯
Good guide
Thanks a lot! Ive been working on my car for a good minute trying to figure out whats going on, good battery, new starter, no bad fuses, good wiring, but it wont start in park, only neutral
park switch bad grounding
Safety neutral switch if u can only start it in neutral
Hello I own a dune buggy before this issue I brought a new starter and a relay the buggy worked for about a month and now won’t crank the battery has charge fuses are okay too
was having symptoms similar to the neutral safety switch but did not realize this workaround. went back down to try to start my Lexus GS460 again in neutral, but she started right up in Park without issue...
Originally the issue was a completely dead battery, replaced the battery and she still would not start as above, assuming it might be fuses ordered some fuses online and did other stuff, tried again after about 4 hours(after watching this video) and it started without issue...
Potentially the neutral switch got locked when the old battery was in/when i tried to jump start it, just took a while for the car to reset post having a good battery I guess.
This video helped me, my car is not crack, then I turned gear natural, then I try star car, after that my car is start on
amazing video I just check the relay and was the cause thank you so much
Awesome thank you!
Thanks so much resolved the issue in 2min after watching your video
Awesome, thank you!
This is sooo helpful
Yeah Acura tl type s does that won’t start so i throw in neutral and start because it’s reading it’s in gear
Last month my car started but the moment I put my foot on the gas pedal it would turn off and the battery light turned on. Not because of a bad alternator but because the car was losing power and when I started back up it started up just fine. No issues but the moment I'll put my foot in gas where the reversing or driving it'll shut off. It turned out that it was a sensor. MAP sensor. I also recently replaced the Fuel pump and fuel filter as well as a crankshaft sensor and camshaft sensor. I also replaced the air filter and spark plugs. Luckily I have all of that fixed and replaced on my car. Runs good now and it no longer turns off while driving in it.
Great video
Thank you!
Great video dude. So many potential issues.
I appreciate you!
Wife just called about this problem, called her and told her to put it on neutral like you said and it started,thanks for the video. Its happened to me many times i replaced the starter guess it wasnt it bc its happened again. Gonna check that bracket and tighten it
How can u put it in N if it don’t start😂
@@moneykiddtv5316 i think its bc its an old 2000 f150 bro
Did you turn the keys off then started it while in neutral?
@joeykanakanui4994 😊I don't why my hard headed husband don't listen now I have to probably replace neutral sensor ...because he keeps trying to jump the car without putting it in neutral. Ignition off
Put foot on brake
Pop it in neutral
Then start Ignition
It starts everytime.
If he does it it doesn't.
Now I'm pissed because I just replaced battery, spark plug harness that snapped, rethreaded the spark plug well because #4 popped out. Now I gotta replace egr and recheck o2 sensors up/down stream because it's too lean system bank 1 guzzling up too much fuel where I have to have a back up of gas with me or I won't make it home. Now this fool got my battery fucked up. 😒 and I'm on a bike to get around until I can get under the hood without disturbance and fix 2000 Ford expedition of 266k miles. I don't want to sell it for parts I don't have the money for another car rnn. Geesh 😢😢
Hoping the neutral start trick works. Turned my truck off last night and then went to move it 5 minutes later and nothing when I turned the key. Battery is good, haven't checked fuses or replaced the starter and I'm hoping I don't have too lol
Same
After replacing the fuel pump in my Jeep grand cherokee laredo 3.7 WK- Im now having a problem with a vapor lock and my new pump is making a ringing/humming noise off and on-is there a way to fix it with a inline check valve or inline filter of some sort. I have to release pressure on the fuel rail to re-crank it after it runs for more than 20 minutes/ which is a possible fire risk.
I have a 05 RX330 that won't crank or start, very frustrating everyone keeps saying it's the starter but you name so many more options. I need my car fixed ASAP for Dr appt and my son plays football also I'm his personal Uber driver and crippled w/o a car. I feel like someone should be able to come and at least check some fuses. Hate being a single mom times like this.
I hope things work out for you ❤
You need a man?
@@ShaexxUnwanted it was the starter.
Hey friend. Not sure you’ll see this but my 2012 Ram 1600 has been having starting issues for a while now. I’ve replaced starter, battery, tried to start this morning and would not start? Going to check fuses and try to start in neutral when I get out of work today? It buzzed this morning and showed a “”no fuse” error? Never seen that before?
Thank You ...
I'm having the same issue, ford mustang 2012. Took it to ford to replace starter relay and didn't fix my issue -$400 down the drain. I don't know who to actually take it to so they can get to the root of the issue. Bought it from a used dealer as is 2 months ago. Frustrating
Thank you, great info!
and thank you!
Thank you this video is awesome
and thank you!
Thanks I’ll try. Battery 14v turn key clicks. Put battery jumper on and it starts. Weird. New battery.
Been trying to prepare mine. Already repaired it. These were the main issues. The starter, starter relay, the fuel pump being bad, Clogged fuel line, Bad battery, bad alternator, car being left on drive. Bad IBS(intelligent battery sensor). After fixing all that it finally turned on. Cleared the check engine light to by cleaning my intake and exhaust solenoids.
on mine it was some sort of starter relay issue , bought both new battery and starter first, but that did not help
2002 camry, 240k miles. Cut off while driving, no crank no start, starter does not click. Dash lights and headlights on. No blown fuses, no visibly burnt relays. Any thoughts?
Uhhh , the starting diagram is incomplete plz add a signal wire from the ign switch to the starter solenoid
I have the anti theft light on my 2013 mustang gt
Now what do I do???
Thank you so much 😊
And thank you!
Thank you sir!
and thank you!
I have had this problem before it was the fuse only found out after i replaced the Alternator check your fuses first guys
.... I just replaced the alternator...
Wheres the fuses at?
Also, if you have a 26yo Expedition like myself and your truck does not fully stay in park because of the spring inside the instrument panel, it won't start 🤦♀️ Oh the joys of not being able to afford a newer used vehicle.
09 dodge avenger sxt, parasitic drain. Won’t turn over, won’t crack, no power whatsoever have looked everywhere, battery is good as long as it doesn’t stay plugged in to long, alternator is good, starter is good, but the battery wont stay charged overnight even when the car is off and no interior lights are on. Please any ideas would be amazing.
Hi ...i have question there is a time my car not start ...what i did i put the shift gear to neutral. Then is start. My question is is that ok and safe or there is issue that need to addess because sometime my car is not start while is in park mode. Thanks in advance.
So I have a question...
Earlier this year (after my previous car was totaled), I bought 2011 Honda Fit. I would start just fine most of the time, but then this one day it just wouldn't crank at all. I had to towed to the mechanic shop that I use. They said it was just a loose connection (or something akin to that, I'm not the most car savvy person around), fixed it and it worked fine ever since.... until today (it was about 6 months between the last issue and the one today).
I went to a store this morning, and when I came back out and got in the car, it wouldn't start. I tried a few times, and it was always this no crank condition. I called for roadside assistance for a tow. But as I was waiting, I tried again to start the car, and that time it started just fine. I canceled the roadside assistance, and I dropped the car off at the mechanic shop that I use (they won't be able to look at it until Monday).
Any idea what the issue might be? It's weird that it just wouldn't crank and then a little while later (and after I tried a few times), it suddenly started again.
The battery in the car is new. I had that changed out shortly after I got it. So that shouldn't be the issue.
Did you ever get it figured out? I’m having this same issue. batter is fine
Dude my car keeps doing that it's sooo annoying, randomly starts but never when i want it to
Thank you bro!
And thank you!
I have a issue starting my Porsche panamera it's been sitting for 5 to 6 months during the winter and when I try to turn it on I get a clicking sound My battery volts is 11.03 I tried to boost it it didn't work I was told it was a starter issue but I'm wondering should I get a new battery first or can I test the relay and everything with this low battery since I can't turn the car on.
This was very helpful. Mine was a stupid problem, as soon as you said immobilizer it clicked. I didn't have mine with me. I like the short form check list of things to check. Not some 20 min long video of a solution that doest even work for your problem.
My saturn vue just started this i was just driving it turned it off and when i went to crank it it was trying to turn over but didn't now its not even trying to turn over no sound any answers or suggestions?
New starter new battery, no flickering, relay is good, will try to start if jumper used on relay, starts 97% of the time. It seems if I shift into park too fast without the steering wheel aligned then it won't start. No security light either.
I NEEDED THIS! THANK YOU
Thank you!
Good battery, starter, alternator, ignition, fuses all good. Manual transmission engage clutch, gears in neutral, turned key NOTHING NOT EVEN A CLICK! No panel lights, No dome light, Not even a door open chime, NOTHING! '98 Chevy S10 LS 2.2L 4Cyl 2WD 5-Speed
am experiencing the same issue on my VW polo... It starts up when the car is motion. problem occurs mostly in the mornings
thank you
and thank you!
car starts but only when i push in the shifter button.. when i push it in again the car turns off. so the car starts but the shifter acts like a push start button and its a auto og shifter on a 2018 focus also a normal key to start.
I have a new fuel pump, ECM, battery and terminal connectors, truck still will not start. Perhaps it is one of the fuses. Thank you.
Nice video
Thank you!
My antitheft icon has always been on. Would it suddenly be the issue my car won't crank over?
Ended up being the fuse for the computer why my car wouldn't crank over. Acted like I did not have the clutch pushed in even tho I did. Glad it was a simple fix 🥰
My issue is that my 2011 Nissan maxima is turning on like I can’t start the car but afterwards it doesn’t move at all and the steering wheel is locked it doesn’t move or roll no matter what gear I’m in
Awesome advice! I put the car in neutral and the car started right up! Thanks!!!
Dude I just tried this and it started right up… what was the problem?? I changed my neutral safety switch already
A no crank no start is the exact problem im dealing with right now and it is VERY frustrating. Sometimes my car will start and I can turn it on and off when I go to different places but then randomly when im out somewhere and I try to start the car it just doesnt start. After maybe 10-20 tries then it will start? Its scary not knowing if the car will start every time. Ive had it checked and apparently the wiring is okay. Can a bad fuse cause intermittent starting?😔
Do you have a engine light on?
@@portallama Well the entire dashboard lights up but the car just doesnt start sometimes. Then after maybe 10-15 minutes and multiple tries it just starts? I already replaced the alternator and battery and apparently the wiring is okay. Ive noticed that if I warm the car up a little longer it doesnt happen as much but I dont know how that would help.
@@andyd3447 go get a free reading of the engine at autozone, mine was doing that and it was the catalac converter
I’m having the exact same issue. Did you ever get it resolved?
@andyd3447 I’m having the exact same issue. Did you ever get it resolved?
Ijust need a diagnosis test. Can't wait keep spending money I don't have 😢😎
jfc... I got my car towed because it wouldn't start for me. I think the gear was nudged slightly into reverse the whole time. It's starting up with no problem now. Thank you for this video, I feel a little silly but I'm also glad I didn't bring it to a mechanic or start replacing parts.
I’ve got a question 😢 so my car was giving me a code nd the code was to replace the idle control valve so I did, then I also replaced the battery since the other one was too old and the alternator is also brand new but I still get no crank the car tries to turn on but it won’t what can it be???? Is a 2002 bmw 325ci
Scrap it🗑️
Tks bro alot inf, 👍👍👍👍
And thank you!
My car will start but when I turn it off sometimes it won't turn over I have jump the battery. But the battery is new. What is that
I have 2008 Audi a3 wasn’t starting or turning over because of starter just put new one in it turns over but won’t start HELP
Putting the car in neutral really helped thank you!

I got a 2013 ford edge 3.5 v6 and my car does a no start no crank literally everything turns on in accessory but won’t start when it did it today I put it in neutral and it started but I can’t find a video on how to fix a bad neutral, safety switch can anyone help
Every morning my car wont start. I have tested the battery in the morning and is at 12.22vs and 14.60 when running . If I put a jump pack the car will start. If I turn the car off straight away and try to start it with out the jump pack it will start no issues. So the battery’s not the issue. When I signal left the battery light flashing in time with the signal. The fuel light is on all the time and when I turn tc of the fuel light turns off and the temp light comes on. Have been to 2 different highly rated garages and they can’t find the issue. Have spend a few hundred with them trying to solve and no luck.
I have a problem when my key isn’t responding at all when I turn my key nothing happens no lights turn on, no clicking when I turn it over I need help I don’t know what the problem is
Got a no crank/start but the battery doesn't hold power, within a day it's dead. Jump start tried but no start ::
I have a GMC Acadia 08 it doesn't crank no start
What can I do for the anti theft problem?
Check for a little 2 amp fuse under the hood it’s called swc bklt, it fixed my issue, maybe it can fix yours
@@tristanjoanette thank u I’ll try it
I have a 2006 or 2008 Audi A3
It worked just fine when I went to work
But I went to grab groceries & pizza & it wouldn’t start when I was in the parking lot
Before it would struggle to turn & I was told to just give it some gas( press the gas pedal) & it would turn over so I tried it & it was a no go.
It’s been sitting next to my house for almost a year now as we replaced the starter cause my uncle thought it was the starter & nope, I think it’s the ignition switch as all the lights & radio turn on & it can switch gears just fine. What do y’all think? Sorry that I jumped around as I tend to do that
I have a problem with my Mercy A140, it won't crank but i can only hear clicking sound and if i stop starting from the key i must to fully turn of the key. The weird part is my battery is in perfect condition, i can start the other car with the battery. Can someone help what is the problem?
My car has no crank but all lights will work, you can hear the click on the main relay and humming sound for the fuel pump. After you jumpstart it, turns on like nothing ever happened. Then it turns on, on it’s own the rest of the day but after you let it sit for a while like a day or so, still has power but no crank again, then it works with a jumpstart. Could it be the battery? Last time this happened was last month then worked everyday like a charm until recently and this time it’s everyday.
Bro same 😿
Mine does not click at all which led me to belive maybe it's not the starter😢
I’ve yet to find ANYTHING about this, but maybe by a miracle someone will know the reason for why my 09 impala ss started cold start perfectly fine, but when I turned the key it shut off, and now I can not get it to start or cold start anymore, but everything lights up fine so battery is perfectly good?! PLEASE HELP
Today my car no crank no started and I called a tow truck and after waiting 45 minutes and still no tow truck the car started and ran fine. It’s a hot/warm start issue causing no crank no start and I just changed the ECT. Changed the starter a year ago for the same issue (it’s gotten worse over the year). So frustratingggg it was so hot today.
It was the ignition coil and ignition module in the end! Haha
Hi, what vehicle do you have? I’m going through the same crap toyota rav4 2012
@@williamandrade4838 I’ve got a 1993 Volvo 240. Best of luck!
Why does nobody address an engine that starts cold but after it’s warm won’t turn over when restarting it?
Mine's the opposite. Restarts when it's warm, not cranking when cold.
Well this just brought anxiety to me
My car wont start, my dash wont turn on when i try to crank and ive tried jumpstarting it but nun happend and even put in a new battery still nun. Maybe my fuses?
Did you ever find out the issue? I am having the same symptoms?
@@alexjames5024 I had a blown fuse
I need help!!!! So I have a 2009 g6 my car starts fine when it's cold but if I drive it for like 5-10 minutes and cut it off it doesn't want to start again until the moter cools...can anyone help me?????
I have the same problem we’re you able to figure it out ?
@@exotictv7575 no I can not figure it out... have you found out anything
What if the engine light is on? Wont start,, key fob wont work,, cant lock or unlock the car
I would start by reading the codes that are related to the engine light. You’ll need an obd2 scanner if your vehicle is made after 1996.
I don’t know what my issue is on my camper Van fitted new battery everytime i start the van i get a click only when trying to jump start it it will start.. could it be the starter soloniod? or relay perhaps?
It seems like there might be a problem with the starter motor or its connections. When you only hear a click, it often indicates that the starter solenoid is engaging but the starter motor itself isn't turning over. This can happen due to a faulty starter motor or poor connections between the battery and the starter motor.
IT WAS THE PARK
put it in neutral and boom it starts tysm for this video
Awesome, thank you
It is frustrating. No engine light code. Battery is good. Fuses and relays are good. Car won’t start regardless of the gear. Replaced the starter and it still won’t start.
Change your cransaft sensor
What to do when transmission is malfunctioning
Make sure the car is in " P " lol
Another reason could be the oxygen sensor(s).
Replace starter 1:44
replace your starter relay,
Anti theft symbol came up locked and unlocked the car still won't start
I have a yugo man half of this stuff does not exist in my car
