Q: Car will not start even though all the dash functions display. The engine stated and ran until I had a mechanic clear its check en

But after I had a mechanic clear the dtc codes the car would not crank or start even though the dash displays worked. There is no juice going to the starter.
My car has 112000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
