SOURCE: car wont start

I noticed you replace the crankshaft sensor, but not the CAMshaft sensor.
The Ignition module takes the input of both sensors to tell the coil when to energize.
This sensor should come up as an error code when you attach a obd reader.
Even if your light is not on - there may be a code. If it is not your vehicle originally, some people pull the bulb!

SOURCE: won't start. Battery has full charge and fuses good

Check starter relay fuse and fuel pump fuse inside under hood fuse box. Take out those 2 fuses (they are the same size) and bend the 4 tabs outward a little bit, then re-insert. This will help the fuse prongs make contact inside fuse box.

My 2008 silverado won't start battery is charged

No, it isn't an ignition issue.

Check power to the starter motor solenoid.
If this is getting power when cranking, then the issue is with the starter motor solenoid or starter motor. Replace.

My question is how can i disable the DRL on a 2012 BMW 1 Series 118i

Actually, the daytime running lights and, every other electrical component in your vehicle run on the alternator when the car is running. The primary purpose of your battery is to start your car and retain memory of the various computers. After you start your vehicle, power is generated by the alternator (vehicle generator) which charges the battery for the next startup and provides power for everything in the vehicle.
In any case, there should be a fuse for the daytime running lights. Pull the fuse and move on.

2009 HHR won't start. Battery is good.

Is the security light on or blinking?If not then do you have power to the starter.You can check this with a test light.You should have power when you turn the key to start.The test light should light up.Should be the small wire.I believe it is purple in color.If the security light is on then you will have to get the codes to see what is causing the no start.Hope this helps.Good luck.
