New battery. Won't start (even with a jump) - *no click*. Headlights, radio, heater all work.
Left my 91 crown vic running. Shut it off and when I tried to crank, nothing cranked but I do have batttery power.
Check the battery cables and the grounds for the engine, frame and body.
Run ground wire direct from battery negative to solenoid housing on starter.
Add a CommentAlso install fender mounted relay for ignition wire on solenoid so a heavier gauge wire can be run from battery positive to ignition terminal on solenoid through the relay. Also install heavy gauge ground wire from frame to engine block as the aluminum transmission housing is a poor ground for the starter housing.

Thank you MrMark . . you were on the right course, but it turned out to be a loose wire!
I have the same problem. Replaced the altenator, starter, solenoid, and got a new battery. It still wont crank and it doesnt click. Could it be the ignition?
