Unhappy 03 silverado no start
Hey guys. I have an 03 silverado 5.3l with 35000 miles. No problems til now. Drove the truck on and off all day. Went out to start it and nothing, not even a click from the starter. Checked the battery with a load tester. Tests out fine. I have no idea. I turn the key and there is dead silence.
Need help!!! 2 cars crap out within 24hrs. Not good.
Thanks

Is it parked inside or out?

Ok, the reason I ask is I've seen this scenario caused by critters chewing wires. May be a long shot, but if your battery is good and you get nothing it could be the case.

All is good except no starter movement or noise.

Truck started today.
After doing some reading online. This is a common problem. With no cure.
