Question 1995 Jetta VR6 won't start.. HELP!!!

I have a 95' Jetta. 2.8L. 150,000 miles. I recently installed a new starter/solenoid, alternator, battery, and ignition switch. It was doing OK until I parked it for about a month and a half. I got back in it to drive and get nothing. No clicks. All my accessories, dash lights, and power windows work. When i turn the key to start the lights slightly dim so i am guessing that the started is getting power to it. Any help is appreciated. Thanx

Your battery may have enough power for your accessories, but not to crank over your engine. Your battery must have sufficient cranking amps to start the car. I would try a battery change out first, even if the battery is fairly new. Franco

Great, you should have plenty of power. Did you go back over the other items that you recently replaced? Ignition switch, starter/solenoid, alternator. A faulty ignition switch could give you this problem or your connection may have come loose. Franco
