Try jumping the the starter solonoid. If it cranks there then the problem is further up the line. Nuetral safety switch or something else melted.

Re: CAR WONT START HELP !!!!!!!!!
I had a similar problem. The key was not activating the starter. It ended up being the long conector where the steering column wiring hooks up under the dash, I cleaned the connection and used a bit of dilectric grease on it. I also added a push button under the dash, hooked up to the solenoid to start it while figuring this out. Hope this helps.

Re: CAR WONT START HELP !!!!!!!!!
when you have the key in the ignition and in the ON position, is the ECM check engine light on? If its not on, then your ECM may be fried or the fuse blew.
