I know this sounds lame but, there is a switch on the console to disable interior lights. Is this on? That happened to me once and I checked fuses and about that time "DUH" I thought about the switch!

have someone hold key to start position and tap on the starter with a hammer, if it cranks you need a new starter

WHEN YOU TURN THE KEY HAVE THE DRIVER DOOR OPEN AND SEE IF YOU HEAR THE FUEL PUMP COMEING ON (2 SEC HUMMING NOISE) IF NOT CHEK THE FUEL PUMP FUSES IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT FUSE BOX,

Sound like your starter is bad, try hooked twelve volts directly to the starter and the small wire (splendid) and ground the case of the starter see what happens please rate

Yo! Your battery doesnt have enough power to crank your engine.that has got to be a problem with your alternator.it is meant to charge your battery.please replace the alternator so it will charge your battery

There is a switch called the "neutral safety switch"..... I have no idea on the location. But maybe try asking for the location on this site. Someones bound to know. Also, sometimes the anti theft system can cause no starts. If you see a light on the dash that says security, that might be it. http://vatspasslockpasskeysecurityhelp.yolasite.com/ this is a link for security problems

What exactly is your issue with your vehicle?

The crank sensor is inside the distributor and may also be called an HEI pickup.
Disconnect wiring harness and remove the two tork head screws and lift out. Now would be a good time to replace the rotor & distributor cap if you haven't done so lately.
I hope this helps.

Let me know if this is still an issue.
