Engine will not crank over?

I have a 2004 Pontiac Grand Am. My car won't start unless I get a jump. No lights come on either. My battery is a few months old. Is this my alternator causing the problem or wires?

Have charging system checked and battery load tested.

Once car is started, take a meter and measure voltage across batt. Terminals, should be near 14 volts, if it isnt, the charging system is not working, if it is working, take the battery in and have it load tested, if battery is ok, you may have a draw that is draining the batt. Overnight. In this case you would have to perform a battery draw test.

I have a 2004 Pontiac Grand Am and about two weeks ago it would not start. I thought it may have been the battery, so I had a relative give me a jump to see if my car would crank. It started and then immediately died. Being that it died so quickly, we figured it was the battery and purchased a new battery. The new battery was installed and the car immediately started. It cranked a few times was driven around that same day and then when I attempted to crank it for about the fifth time that day, it would not crank. I thought the cell in the battery may have been no good so I took the battery back and had it replaced under the warranty. The new battery has done the exact same thing. The car cranked a few times and now it will not. I have been told it may be my alternator. However, I took the car to Auto Zone and they ran a test on my alternator and I was informed that my alternator is fine. I do not know what is going on and I need my car. Can someone please tell me what may be the issue? I am at my whits end and cannot seem to find out what is wrong with my car at all.

Car was running fine recently then one day after being ran for about 30 minutes around town I got in it and turned the key but absolutely nothing was happening. Battery was tested at 100%, then the starter tested bad so I replaced it. Still nothing. Fuses look fine and I don't think it's the ignition switch because all the warning lights come on.

My 2004 Pontiac Grand Am with 46,000 miles has decided it won't start. About a month ago after getting gas the engine wouldnt turn over, nor make any effort to start at all. All the lights and radio and power windows and such worked. We had it towed to the dealer and they said that it was just a loose connection to the computer and that they were only going to charge us for the diagnostic test since they barely did anything to it. Tonight after being in the grocery store for about an hour it did the same thing. I really don't want to have to pay another $200 to have the darn thing towed and have another diagnostic test only for it to be something really easy to fix. Has anyone ever heard of something like this before? Is it possible that I may be able to juggle some wire somewhere to make the connection better. Thank you very much

So my car wouldn’t start. Got AAA to put a new battery in and still wouldn’t start. Was able to jump and take it to the shop. Mechanics say there’s nothing wrong they can find with the starter, alternator or anything and that it’s starting fine for them? The only thing that needs replaced is my serpentine belt, which I agreed to do. What could it be or was is it just a one time thing?

The car will turn over strong and is not starting.

I have put gas in this car.

I have hooked it up with jumper cables to another car running.

I also sprayed starting fluid into the breather while turning the engine over.

It will turn the engine over strong, and try to start, but it will not run.

The car has always cranked without hesitation before now.
Can you give me your opinion, and some more test to try?

When I go to start the car, all lights turn on, and it chugs but just doesnt have that extra "UMPTFF" to fully turn over and on. Do u know what the issue might be?

2003 Grand am won't crank when you hit the starter. Not a dead battery, as all electrical remains on when I hit the key. Starter doesn't even click. I shorted the starter with a wrench, and it turned over just fine, but did not start.
