Model 728. Why doesn't it start?

turn the lever from drill to hammer
there will be 2 levers so follow the icons near the lever

Check it again. It may have something dragging on the key, maybe something sticky like soda or juice residue. You can also try swapping out the key with another C or F key that is less used. Good luck!

have someone tap the starter (with broomstick or hammer or whatever you have to tap on it) while other tries to start the vehicle. If it does start and run, then you have bad starter.

this is a one time fix most times if it works.
with someone turning the key to the start position someone else hits the starter with a hammer not hard but a good tap.
may take some continus tap tap tap tap to get it out of it's dead spot but have seen this work 80% of the time if the starter has landed on a dead spot. sometimes you can restart the vehicle again other times not! hope this gets you going to the parts store at least.
good luck

Possible causes are: 1. Loose or corroded battery cables. 2. Bad starter 3. Dead battery. Try tapping on the starter with a hammer while someone is holding the key in the start position. If it starts then replace the starter. Thanks

Sounds like a bad starter. You might get it to start if you tap on the starter with a small hammer or a wrench while someone turns the key for you. If this makes it start, replace the starter.

the starter is bad but first check the starter with key turned tap the starter with a hammer it should jar it over and get it to start.

Sounds like the starter has failed. Have someone turn the ignition while you tap on the starter with a hammer. If it starts, that confirms starter. If it still doesn;t start, remove the stater and have it bench tested at a parts store.

All you need is two inexpensive things to fix this. 1. Hammer and 2. WD-40. First, put the key in the ignition and tap it with the hammer. (this should unlock the steering wheel and the iginition) Second, spray some WD-40 in the key opening on the ignition, then put the key in again and proceed to tap it some more with the hammer. (WHEN I SAY TAP THE HAMMER I DO NOT MEAN HIT IT WITH FULL FORCE)... Any who keep put WD-40 and tapping it until you can turn the key without the help of the hammer... (should be at least 4 times) THE PROBLEM IS THAT WITH TIME DEBRI BUILDS UP IN THE IGNITION, AND THIS CAUSES THE STEERING TO LOCK UP WHEN YOU PLACE THE KEY IN THE IGNITION. THE HAMMER UNLOCKS THE SPRINGS IN THE IGNITION AND THE WD-40 CONVERTS THE DEBRI TO LIQUID SO IT CAN CLEAN THE IGNITION...

The relay to the starter solenoid may need replacing.
check your earth returns on the starter to car-body and all other wiring connections, clean terminals are good.
Quickfix for sticky starters = tap starter with a hammer and kick her over, works for some other cars like mitzibishis
