its not auto diagnostic forum here, no one will help much here. only will tell you go to dealership
check voltage when you turn key on crank position
maybe starter fuse blow? for some strange reason
check all the fuse, worth a shot

All sorts will try to help. Very few will succeed. It is the same as saying "I have this noise what is it". A thousand people can throw ideas at it but without being able to see and touch it there is little value in them.

It may be a long shot... but I do very much appreciate the suggestions. Next I will try fuses. Any particulars to check? Not sure which fuse is starter... I guess I can just pullemall. But there are quite a few.

What's not true? The OP said that his electrics worked. Perhaps the anti-theft light has a dedicated battery, but with a dead main battery, the lights would not work. If the battery is too low to start the car, but still runs the lights, etc, he would have at least heard the solenoid clicking.

Maybe I don't understand what you're saying, but based on what he wrote, I can't see how getting a jump would help.

Checking the fuse makes the most sense.

@SkiRideDrive I'll help you out. Definitely a fuse... I'll dig up the proper slot and post a pic shortly. Pretty sure the one you're looking for is going to be a 7.5a and should be spares in the box under the hood.

These kinds of stupid posts aren't funny anymore nor are they conducive to helping anyone in anyway. Way to make everyone on the forum look bad

Beastronix has been in contact with me via email. Very helpful. Have gone through a few fuses and haven't quite found the problem yet. Will continue to diagnose tomorrow. Thanks for the help guys.

I have never looked at it against the real thing it was given a long time ago as the proper one. So I can't vouch that it is.

Why the negativity? Someone here might have had the same problem and resolved it, or people might know enough to help diagnose and fix the issue.

Get together smart people, like we have on this forum, and the sky's the limit as to the help they can provide.

"-The alarm (flashing red light with lock) light flashes on dash when I am not trying to start the car. I can't remember if that light flashed did that before this whole snafu, I'd be willing to guess it did not, but can't be sure. "

Generally if the alarm/security light is flashing the alarm/security is still active and the car will not start

We dont have the alarm function in my country just the immobilizer.

if all the dash lights illuminate and headlights work ect but car wont crank and imobilier/security light still flashing then i would concentrate on some issue with security system check the imobiliser/alarm fuses plugs/connections to alarm/imobiliser ect.
also measure the battery volts under load even a dead battery can measure ok unloaded.

as well as checking fuses check the big fusible links under the bonnet.
