It sounds like your lock rod cylinder in your sterring colum is broken. That can be expensive to fix! $500 or so. There is an alternitive though. Go to a alarm and window tint shop. Have the install remoteless key start up on you car. Car will start up fine. All your doing is bypassing the ignition swith and sending a signal to your starter directly. It will work beleive me. To check if this is your problem run a cable or wire from the starter to your batter from under the hood, if the car starts(make sure the keys are in the on postion) its your lock rod cylinder! If it doesnt its a bad starter or ignition switch...most likely ignition switch.

Changed alternator turns over still wont crank

Check some fuses or see if you are getting any kind of spark. Spark at the plugs or injectors.

Outlander2004 start but wont fire up

You mean it cranks but won't start ?
If the check engine light is not on when you turn the key on, the engine computer does not have power from a fuse, or the computer has failed.

2004 saturn ion starting problems

The cranking problem could be a weak battery, bad connection between the battery and the starter, or a weak starter. Sometimes the brushes in a starter stick and don't make contact.
The check engine light should come on when the key switch is on and then go off once the engine starts.

2004 Dodge sx 2.0 runs great but check engine light is on.?

I take it the light stays on? You might want to check your air filter, might be stuffed. You can reset the Check engine light by disconnecting the battery while the ignition is in the 'on' position, either negative or positive( I generally go with the positive, feel better about it for some reason) leave disconnected for about a minute, during this time I turn the ignition to 'off'. Reconnect the battery, if the light comes back on, you might want to get it scanned with an OBD and see what error codes it gives you, could be an O2 sensor or anything.

2004 SX 2.0 (standard) everything turns on except the engine

It sound like the nutral saftey switch their is a swith thats connected to the clutch arm up under the dash. When you push your clutch in it tells the computer that it's okay for the car to start because it knows then knows that the transmission is disengaged and in nuetral for saftey reasons. It's a pain in the but to to sometimes depending on how much room you have to stick your head up under the dash. Get a flashlight and just push the clutch in and out you might hear it click to help you find it. It might be a little box conected to the arm itself or just a simple switch that just pushs in and out. I hoped this helped you out. It would be appreciated if you could rate my answer. Thanks, Good luck MIKE-

Wont start

Start by checking the battery connections. If they seem okay then, even though it may be pretty new, I would take the battery to the dealer and have them check it for an internal short in the battery. I had this happen 2 weeks after picking up a new car.
