car is fine, but when going to start, nothing

no click, no wherrrs, its dead

bump starts easily enought, and the battery is all charged

just not getting a feed to the starter i dont think

any ideas??

check if theres a feed to the starter? if there is then you need a new starter motor.

if not then trace back from there.

can u hear the starter knocking when u turn the key? if so there is power to the starter if not then id suggest working backwards too.

take you starter motor out

get a 12v bater and put the posertive to the posertive and negertive to negertive and it should move work in theory right ?
