My 96 Windstar will not start. I believe its the starter. I tried jumping it and it won't work. Does anyone have any ideas? Where would the starter be located? Thanks.

Does your van want to start? Try checking the fuel switch in the back of the van where the tire jack is located. Make sure it didn't trip.

Hello

What happens when you turn the key? Nothing? Lights on the dash come on? Lights dim? Hear a click? Starter just spins? Do your head lights come on? Are they bright? When you hooked up the jumper cables, did you hear the vehical that you jumped it with slow down because of the extra load?

Your starter is located on the front lower side of the engine. Make sure you disconnect your battery before you start removing it.

Get back to use with answers to the above questions and we'll go from there.
