You meant it wont crank right? if it dont crank is will not start with automatic trans.
jump cable crank it off a running donor car.yet,AAA tow style>?
keep cables in car at all times, I do for 50 years.

My van won't start but all gauges flicker door open alarm charms radio works

If the guages are flickering it sounds like a weak battery.. Radio doesn't take as much power to run. But when you turn the key on everything powers up and it takes a lot to engage the starter.. Try turning on the headlights, do they look dim?? Either way attempt a jump start if your battery is ok it will not hurt a thing to try.

Gauges and radio flicker and truck wont start

Sounds like the battery is bad. Replace the battery with a new one then get the old one charged and tested if its good you may have a drain on the vehicle or the alternator may not be charging.

2002 Impala Light/starting problem

I had a Dodge Caravan do this same thing to me and we finally found out that the battery was damaged. This was at a dealership I worked at so the mechanics and I tried a few things before we discovered that the problem was in the battery. We even got it started and as we drove the van the gauges were bouncing up and down erratically. Have your battery tested before you buy a new one(most parts store do this free now). A fresh undamaged battery should do the trick. Good Luck
