Default My car wont do nothing at all when i try to turn it on...

2004 is 5speed. I drove the car to work yesterday and it started with no issues. when i got out of work i always give it time to warm up before i head home. still no issues i went to my boys crib. went to a party came back the car started fine as i drove home i stopped at a red lite and when it turned green my engine had shut off (i was jammin out so i didnt here it shut off, i thought i had jus slipped of the clutch and stald). when i tried to start her up nothing would happen. i had to push her back to the crib in flip flops. While turning the key u here nothing and the clock lite shuts off. Could this be the battery? or is it some thing bigger? in the cluster cant u see if the battery is dead?

try banging on the starter with a pipe or something and see if it cranks over. if it cranks over after u hit the starter, then the starter might be done

Default Problem fixed

So my car is running fine jus to update this thread incase any body runs into this issue.
My trouble-shootin along with my neighbor began with bypassin the starter and goin strait to the battery still that didnt get the car to start but atleast it would chuckle. so it wasnt my starter. i checked all the fuses but i guess i over looked AM2. AM2 is the fuse for ur ignition. My neighbor saw that the wires below the fuse were touchin causein the fuse to pop makein it impossible for the car to start.. it was a mission findin this problem but owell atleast its fixed.
