when you turn the key to acc power do any lights come on in the dash? does the horn blow? sounds like you have a shorting out problem to me. I dont know how hoisting your car would make things work again, unless you have some sort of shorting out going on. Is your battery tight and not moving around? check for loose terminals on the battery. and check the alternatorl. and get a fuse light tester and check appropriate fuses. remember always check fuses visually and with a light tester. Because an unbroken fuse doesnt mean its good. check with a light tester

2nd to gotspeed..... also check to see if your starter is installed properely, it has to bolts connecting it to the bell housing on the passenger side (where the engine meets the transmission), also check the connectors of the starter, there are 2 of them, and there is a nut (12mm i belive) on each of the connectors holding them to the starter.....

I would think the horn would be blowing if its the security locking down the ignition.

This is a old thread but queation wasnt answered it seems like. I have a 93 240sx car is doing some thing similar. It makes no noise when i turn the key but the dash light up and every thing and ofcourse it doesnt start.

Its funny because just about 20 mins ago it was fine.

If this was fixed help please.

hate to sound silly, but check the tightness of the battery clamps against the battery posts...and check with voltmeter whether battery is putting out at least 12v when cranking...
