1991 Ford Escort Automatic 199000 miles

Hi,

I have a Ford Escort 1991, automatic transmission, mileage 199 000. For a few months my car have been stalling sometimes right after I put the motor on and before I went on D. It doesn't do it all the times but more and more often. Now my car doesn't start at all and I don't hear any noise when I turn the key. I know it's not the battery because I tried to jump it with another car and it didn't work. Could it be the spark plugs? Otherwise, what could it be?

Thanks a lot in advance for your help!
Adeline.

No crank at all/nothing/nada when key is engage to starting position

Could be a blown fusible link, the starter, starter relay, park and neutral switch/transmission position switch and ignition switch assuming the battery and connections are good. Note:If it doesn't apply disregard.
