The car started a month ago now when I turn the key nothing happens, and the lights don't go on either. The battery is fully charged but the lights won't work, or the starter won't turn over.

Good afternoon,

Down at the starter motor where the battery cable attaches, there is a wire that has a fusible link or an inline fuse. It powers up the inside of the car for all accessories.

Check for power to that wire.
