Unhappy car wont start!

well my problem is that yesterday i went to publix and when i went to turn on the car it didnt wanna turn on. it didnt even try to.

like you could put turn on the ignition and all the dash lights turns on but when i try to turn on the car it doesnt do anything and all the lights turn off and when i let it go the dash lights turn on again!

i took the starter out and the battery and it both were good. i check the miniature fuses and they all good!

The AAA guy told me it could be a relay but i checked on the manual book and it doesnt say what are the relays for. they all look the same and doesnt tell you if they are for the ecu or starter or anything! and i dont know how to test them!


please i need your heelllppppp!!!!! is a 99 expedition 5.4

So it doesnt turn over at all?

Check all fues and relays is a must. If you did double check them.
