It just quit n won't restart. Changed plugs and still nothing.
As with any no-start condition, you first need to know if it is no spark or no fuel.
You could try spraying carb cleaner or starting fluid into the air cleaner hose to check for no fuel. Or pull 2 or 3 plugs and check for spark.
Also take a look at the ECM for trouble codes.
It could be anything from a plugged fuel line to the gas tank to a bad relay to a dead ECM.

SOURCE: Where is the transmission Fill plug on a 2005 chevy equinox?
There is no fill plug on transmission pans, you have to fill them from the
dipstick tube in the engine bay. Get a long funnel that will fit into the
dipstick tube hole, and then fill it that way. Make sure you turn the
vehicle on while filling it, and put it through all the gears, with your foot
on the brake. This will make sure your torque convertor is being properly
filled, along with the trans. Good luck.

Please elaborate on "runs rough"
Is it slipping gears.... hesitating on acceleration... missing... smoking... backfiring?
Thanks!!

Welcome to Fixya
Common problem for this are battery problem or loose battery terminal connection. Check also the connection of the battery going to the starter or the starter solenoid is stucked. If all connections are ok. Check to see if its the starter. Get a hammer or equivilent and find the starter. Hit it firmly a couple of times, not a full on swing just a nice strong tap. Try to hit harder if it doesn't work on the 1st try. Just don't break anything. If the car start after doing this, then its DEFINITELY your starter... the solenoid is stuck.
Thank you for using Fixya!
