Hey guys first i'd like to say hello.

Second I may buy this 91 LS. It's in good shape and gerat price, but it has one issue. The car won't start. He says when he turns the key the dash lights come on, but radio won't power, AC won't power etc. I don't think the motor cranks either. He said it's like the car isn't getting power.

Any ideas what this could be? I'm gonna go take a look at the car tomorrow or wed. and try to figure it out. Bad fuses/relays? Bad ignition switch/harness maybe? I'm kinda stumped.

Thanks in advance!


EDIT: Guy just sent me this for what it's worth:

"dash lites up ? NO headlights , no radio , no other electric part . Doesnt not crank i havent tried push starting yet."

When was the last time the car has been started? It could be the battery. I had the same problem with my 90', where the car wouldn't start, but the dash light did come on. When I tried to start the car, it wouldn't kick over. I thought it was the alternator, but it turned out to be a very low battery. I changed the battery and now everything is fine.
