Yesterday my roommates car just died for no reason. It turned over but doesn't even act like it wants to start. Dash just says "done" with no codes, fuel pump is kicking on. I know its electrical but any ideas where to start? What's the common problems? I'm about to check to see if its getting spark. My guess is a fuse or relay, but I'm not really sure

Try resetting security system if no manual look online and check fuses under hood

The fact that it says done with now codes means it could have a bad PCM or the crankshaft angle sensor went out. I would check for spark to confirm ,please go over this video to see what's going on, and I have included the crankshaft sensor in the images below.

You may have a timing belt that has let go, if it sounds funny when cranking over this can be the problem. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
