Car fully powered, even had jump pack attached. Turn key everything lights up but no noise no crank. Key fob is shakey and loose. Car was in front end collision week prior but still crank and drove but a week later would not crank.

Hi,

What we need to do is check is the starter fuse and relay. I attached two pics below. The first is an index of fuses and the second is the under hood fuse box. I highlighted the fuse and relay to test.

As far as the relay, you can switch it with a different one in the box with the same part number or here is a link explaining how to test one.

In addition to just checking the fuse, make sure there is power to it. That can be done using a simple test light. Here are two links. One explains how to check and the other deals with using a test light.

Let me know what you find.

Take care,
