I changed the alternator the battery and the had the starter tested everything’s good but I still can’t start the car. when I go to try and start the car I get no response from nothing and the only thing that pops up on my dash is the check engine light. When I try to turn the key all the way to off position the key gets stuck. what could it be? I tried everything I know.

Welcome to 2CarPros.

The first thing I need you to check is the ignition fuse. I attached a picture of the under hood fuse block and highlighted the fuse for you.

Here are a few links you may find helpful:

Since the battery is new, I will assume the terminals are clean and tight. Also, let me know if anything other than the check engine light is working.

Take care,
Joe
