2000 Accord starting problem... won't crank

Hello all,

I have a 2000 Accord EX 4 cylinder that has never failed to start.
Suddenly, it will not.

All dash lights come on, all accessories, power windows, heater, radio
and virtually everything works, but when I turn the key to the start
position, nothing happens. When I first turn the key all the way to
crank position, I can hear something click, perhaps the starter relay,
but after that, nothing.

Believing it might be a battery problem, I cleaned the posts. No change.
Then, because the battery is more than 4 years old, I simply replaced
it. No change. I checked the fuses on the left side of the dash and in
the engine compartment, but couldn't spot a blown one.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks,

C.A.

If you can get it jump started, head on back over to Pep Boys or Auto Zone--
they'll do a free charging system diagnostic for you.
