No crank means that the starter won't turn the engine. Is this what you mean?

Do the headlights and hazard lights work?

Start by testing the battery. If the starter won't turn when wired directly to a good battery, then the transmission ground wire or starter is bad.

When the key is turned to ON(II), do any of the cluster warning light illuminate? If not, check the ignition switch.

When the key is turned from off to ON(II), does the CEL turn on and then off after 2 seconds?

Check fuses 31 and 24 and the G101 ground wire on the thermostat housing, and resolder the main relay.

Thanks for all your help....cars fixed...I decided to check out what you guys told me going with the easiest and checking the grounds. The ground to the tranny was loose on the chassis...I bolted it tight and got in the car and fired up right away...
