No Gas

Ask yourself when you filled up your car with gas to determine if this is why your car won't turn on when you turn the key in the ignition. You may have failed to see the low gas indicator light on your dashboard. Fortunately, the car will immediately start up again once you refill the tank with enough fuel. You also need to determine if the gas indicator light is faulty.

Dead Battery

Test out your battery to determine if this is why your engine won't start. The battery may have died because it's four to six years old or because you left a light on in the car. There may also be damage due to rust on the parts or because the battery was exposed to high temperatures. A mechanic can quickly and easily install a new battery to restore the car's operation.

Clogged Fuel Filter

The fuel filter is one of the most important components in the vehicle and can become clogged if it's not replaced at the right time. This will prevent enough fuel from reaching the engine. Read the owner's manual to determine when to replace the filter, which is typically between 20,000 to 30,000 miles.

Bad Starter

The starter may not be working well and can be damaged if it's not making your engine start. You may hear a loud clicking noise every time you try to turn the key in the ignition. This will prevent the engine from cranking and requires hiring a mechanic to replace the part.

Faulty Ignition

A faulty ignition can prevent the engine from starting. You may notice your headlights and lights in the cabin still work, but the engine doesn't start. Take the vehicle to a professional technician to determine if this is why the car isn't starting to ensure they can perform the necessary repairs.
