car not starting

[ms!3]

ok so my car is a 1993 240sx with a ka24de engine. i start my car and take i down to the car wash to wash it. after im done i get in my car to go back home and it wont start. it wont even turn over no noise nothing. its not the battery because me and my dad had autozone check it out and its still good. we replaced the ignition fuse in the fuse box and it still doesnt start. any of you got any ideas? i dont know if this has anything to do with it but when i was washing it i wasnt paying attention to where i was sparaying for a couple seconds and some water got into my exhaust. could i of just flooded it out? any replys with be helpful.

Do any of your lights come on? Is there anything that works on the car? If the lights do some one, hence the clock and interior light, then try jumping it. If the battery is good, and it starts when you jump it, it's your alternator. You could have a bad ground somewhere, or your tumbler could have gone out. But it would help if any of your electronics work or not.

when i turn the key all of the interior lights come on. i had a guy help me jumpstart it but it didnt do anything. so me and my dad took the battery to auto zone to see if it was still working and the guy tested it out and said theres still life in it. do you think it could be the starter.

get a voltmeter and check the amperage in the battery while you try to start it , and also check it right before you start it, that is in 1st position.

if you amperage drops drastically, which I dont rememeber right now how much its supposed to be, you could have a faulty battery. not that its necessarilly good or bad but its another factor that almost drove me crazy. when my car wouldnt start
the fix for that would be a new battery.

also if you manage to start the car check to see how much power you are getting back to the battery, it should be around 12.5-14.6 volts or something, batteries die quick if they are given not enough or too much.

if you car wont start for anything check the starter cylinder, that is the lil thing that goes beyond your key in the ignition.
if that went bad, it costs like $39 from dealer and its really not that hard to do it urself.
if none of this has helped you. keep asking and searching

Maybe you had an aftermarket kill switch installed into your car? I have one too.

so thats the kill switch? i was wondering what it was and i couldnt find anything about it in my manuel.

my car in screwed up again now. im pretty sure its the alarm system. my kill switch is screwing up so the only was to start it to push start it and every time you open the doors or turn the key my panic lights go on. i think my horn is broken because when the alarm sets off theres no sound it just my panic lights. any one ever had this happen to there car or have tips for fixing it?
