My 2008 dodge charger will not start. theirs power up to the ignition but wnen I turn the key on nothing. my head lights work my light that tells me the trunk and door is open works.

By now, you have probably figured out it is the battery.
They can quit without notice any time.

Sure sounds like a bad ignition switch to me. Get out your voltmeter and wiring diagram and check for power in and out at the ignition switch

Does the engine crank at all? Can you hear the clicking of the starter solenoid? Have you checked your battery?

If the battery is fine and the engine won't crank and your dash lights and windows are dead, I'm guessing ignition switch.

Sounds like dirty battery cables. Clean top & BOTTOMS!!! Everyone ignores the bottoms and they're exposed to grease, grime...etc. If they're dirty or corroded they form resistance that doesn't allow enough power to starter. You hit the key multiple times, cable heats up, expands makes better contact. I'd start there.

Does the key have a chip in it ? I'm not familiar with the car but it sounds like you might be at odds with the anti theft system. Check with the dealer and see what information they have. Good Luck

Take it to Chrysler for an ignition switch replacement. They replaced mine and both keys as I had the exact same problem. It is a known issue to them. Also, the replacement was covered under warranty.

Either you have had a new key made and it does not quite fit, or your key is worn, or your ignition tumbler is bad.
In either cases, this vehicle is new enough that your Dodge dealer can assist you in making a new key ect.
Please let me know what you find.

Is the security light flashing when it doen't start?

hello. Here is what you do. Turn ignition to on (without starting car) then depress gas pedal 3 times, turn key off.

I had the same problem last night seems like the ignition is a problem with those cars i called a towing and while i was waiting i kept on trying to start and suddenly it started just as the towing showed up seems like the key is very fragile even just rubbing it on your clothes or even run it tru your hair can **** it up so the car won t recognize the code see your dealer
