    96 buick Regal does not start
    I drove the car one afternoon, it ran just fine, parked it in my garage, went back 3 hours later and the car will not start - went through the following steps to isolate the problem:

    1. replaced battery

    2, replaced starter

    3. replaced neutral safety switch

    4. cleaned all terminals that I can see

    Still will not crank

    Please help

    Thanks you in advance

    Check all under-dash and under-hood fuses with a test light or multimeter:

    If the starter motor won't crank:

    If it's a "crank but won't start situation:"

    . Check for codes.
    . Check for spark. If there's no spark, test/replace the Ignition Control Module module and coil(s).
    . Check for fuel. Do you hear the fuel pump in the gas tank run, when the ignition switch is turned to ON?
