I just got a text from a former student who used to work in my lab (i.e. central FL.) They're now going to school in the Tampa bay area, and have a car that won't start.[*]. Anybody want to take a look at it? If not, can you guys recommend a trustworthy mechanic in that neck of the woods.?

[*] - It won't turn over, and doesn't click like it would with a depleted battery. The car's lights, electric locks and automatic seatbelts still work. They didn't say anything about the lights looking dim. The car IS in park, but you and I both know that a bad switch may not KNOW that it are in park.

Also quick check would be put it in neutral and try to start it.
