The car cranks will not turn over. I tried to jump it seems to be getting electric. It wants to start just can't get there has gas. It has been a great car just since the cold didn't drive it 2 days just wouldn't start. But it started all week at 5:00am with no problem. Please help. Thanks, Brian D.

Hello,

Generally speaking, an engine will need spark, fuel and compression to start.

When you turn the key to the on position, can you hear the fuel pump kick in?
The fuel pump will prime for a few seconds when the key gets turned to the on position.
A fuel pump can be inoperative due to a bad relay, wiring issue or a bad pump.

Take a look at this guide, it goes over the typical issues:
