Car wont start
My car was running good two weeks a go. But yesterday it wouldn't start, so I tried boosting it, still wouldn't start, so i tried it with a different car same thing. When i turn the key, there is no sound what so ever and none of the interior lights work. Strangely the head lights work . I think it might be the battery terminals. Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thank You

Did it Roll over when you boosted it with another car?
It sounds like you have bad battery connections...and you also may have flooded it.

Turn the headlights on, then turn the key to start momentarily. Do the headlights dim when the key is in the start position?
If yes, the problem is in the starter, or the engine.
If no, likely an electrical problem. This could be as simple as a burned out ignition switch (been there done that).

It was the fuse, the 80 Amp under the hood. I think i might have happened when i was tring to boost the car two weeks a go. Thank god it wasnt anything too serious.
