Electrical problem
2003 Chevy Blazer 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic

Yesterday my daughter drove the car with no problems. Today I can't get to start. Tried jump starting with no luck. No response at all. No signs of anything amiss, no lights left on, nothing left running.
Do I try a new battery?

Does everything else electrical work? Are the headlamps bright and do they remain bright when you attempt to start it?

Then you have a problem in the starter circuit somewhere that will have to be troubleshooted using a wiring diagram. Try moving it to neutral to see if it's the neutral switch first.
