My van will not start. The battery is good. It doesn't even click when you turn the key.

Hi:
Is the security light coming on the dash when you try to start? If not, I need you to check for power to the starter. Have a helper turn the key to start while you check for power to the smaller of the two wires on the starter. You should have 12 volts.

Let me know what you find.

You could try jumping the car at the starter relay. You can do that by useing a jumper wire to jump power from the power side of the relay to the starter side. If the starter engages than you should look at your ignition. If it dosen't look at the starter
