1992 Oldsmobile Delta 88 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

I changed the spark plugs and the next morning it tried to start but didnt. I waited a little later and tried to start it again and the car wouldnt say nothing the dash lights work, radio, lights. But the car will not make a sound.

Have you checked the starter? If not, have a helper turn the key to the start position while you check for power to the smaller wire on the starter. You should get 12+ volts. If you do, the starter is most likely bad. Remove it and have it bench tested at a parts store to confirm.

Let me know what you find.

PS: I am assuming the battery is good in the car.
