01 elantra won't start no radio no dash lights new battery tap starter it works now that doesn't work jumper cables didn't work

Check in fuse box under hood and dash look for blown fuses and bad starter relays. Also check ground cable from battery this needs to have a good connection. Could be a bad positive cable connection to starter solenoid. Well there's a list of things to check. Hope this helped

01 elantra new battery still won't start

What happens when you try to start?

do you hear any noises?

have you checked to see if there is power on the large wire at the starter? Have you checked to see if there is power on the small wire at the starter with the key in the crank position? If yes to those two questions than the starter may be your problem.

It might have something to do with your mass/air sensor located on the intake tube. Try cleaning the mass air sensor with the appropriate cleaner and also try cleaning the throttle body with carb cleaner.
