2005 Chevy Cobalt won't start
 
My Cobalt won't start, won't even turn over.

There was water in the trunk for quite a while.

I've replaced the battery and the 50A fuse and the connectors and checked the ground in the trunk.

I've checked the fuses and relays in the engine fuse box.

When I turn the key I get no fuel pump sound and no crank.

I don't have a Key Lock symbol on the dash.

I've checked the ODB2 for codes but there were none.

Has anyone experienced this before? What would you try next?


Thanks,


A.

what engine and trans ie auto or manual?
for the starting system
find the crank relay in the underhood fuse box. do you hear and feel it click when someone turns the key to start? if no check the crank 30amp fuse

the fuel pump
same thing
find the fuel pump relay inthe underhood fuse box. do you hear and feel it click when the key is turned to r un. Its should t urn on for 2 seconds at key on. If no, check the f uel pump relay f use 15amp.
