Hey Gordon,
Remove your battery, take it to O'Reilly's, AutoZone, etc.. have them check the CCA (Cold Cranking Amps)-load test.
.. this is what makes your car crank.>Amperage< ... 12+ volts might run the lights.. but just voltage WILL NOT crank your car.. the age of the battery doesn't matter either..

SOURCE: 1995 Buick Lesabre: security blinks and car will not start

If the starter is turning the engine, try re-setting the security system (leave key on till light stops blinking.) If the starter does not turn, you may have some success in re-setting system, if not you need to check battery voltage and voltages in starter system till you find the problem...can be something as simple as a bad connection at the battery. If you need help with further testing, just ask.

Any car with a Factory Anti-Theft System does this whenever battery power is lost. If your owners manual doesn't address this, you will have to contact a GM Dealer to get the system reset. Sorry!

SOURCE: Starter clicks butengine won't turn over on 99

sounds like a bad starter motor, autozone will test it free out of car.
it is a royal pain to get the starter out so pay close attention so it will be easier going back in.

Sounds like a bad starter or a bad battery cable connection to me. If you are certain that tyour battery is in good condition and fully charged, your battery cables are clean and tight and are making good connection on BOTH ends, replace the starter.

SOURCE: 2003 buick century will not always have power, no lights, radio etc.

It could be the battery cables because they can build up acid inside the wire causing problems.The next time it does this take a hammer and tap on the center of the starter housing it could be the bendix bad in the starter.

open the hood and put the car in drive ,then neutral then reverse
the engine should only "rock" about an inch or so,if it really jumps

Weak Battery possibly

Engine turning over-- is not the

You need a code reader to start the process of fining the issue. The traction control is under the vehicle and is tied to the break system. Drivers side on the frame rail. If the vehicle wont start you may have a failing ECM

"2003 Chevy Impala won't start". Car would not

The alternator is not charging,or the battery wont take a charge.If all accessories work fine when its running after you've boosted it,its likely the battery.
