Re: I replaced my starter for my van, but it still wont...
Check your battery voltage. It may be enough to operate the accessories but not enough to start the engine. Use a volt meter on the battery or buy a plug in volt meter that can be used in the cigarette lighter. Auto stores sell them. The voltage reading should be a minimum 12 volts, if it drops below 10 volts while turning the ignition key, then the battery needs to be charged or replaced. Good luck!

We have the same issue currently...very randomly...with our 2008 Caravan at the moment. Wife just got ...
make sure wire for starter relay is on the right post then have the alternator checked it may be bad.
Also ckeck to se if the big wire for the starter is good and getting a good clean tight connection.
My guess would be a switch (park interlock, brake interlock, etc.), a main fuse (located under the hood), or a starter solenoid. One easy check is to turn the key to start and simultaneously wiggle the shifter or pull it in to the Neutral position.
If you tried jumping it and it still doesn't start, then it's not your battery. There may be a problem with the solenoid/starter. Try tapping the starter a few times with a metal object (tire wrench or something), but not too hard. Then try starting it again.
First thing check the fuses! Turn the key to the on 'run' position and check both sides of every fuse with a test light, or pull them out one by one, but test light is easier! If all is fine check for power on the starter main terminal (power will be constant when in any key position), then check for power on other terminal when in start position! If both powers are present then you will need a new starter!
if you van has a security system in it, it could be causing this problem. they usually disable the starter circuit. Paul has listed good places to start. but if they don't fix it do this: when your trying to start but its not working have some one check voltage at the starter. there are 3 points to check 1: where battery cable connects 2: where starter connects to solenoid 3: small wire that operates solenoid. if there is voltage at all three point replace starter it has a shorted / open spot on armature. voltage at 1 and 3 but not 2 replace solenoid. voltage at 1 but not at 3 and you have already checked the items Paul identified check wiring between neutral safety switch and solenoid.
