Q: Vehicle won't start.

asked by on March 04, 2017

When I go to turn the keys to start the vehicle, I can hear a click but the vehicle won't turn over. The battery is not that old and all the electrical in the vehicle turns on no problem. Checked all the fuses and all are good. I found two big fuses under the hood that looked a little caroded and clean then up as best as possible. Tried to replace them but they aren't available anywhere in town at the automotive stores.

My car has 168000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
