No start?? Help please

Just bought my first Acura‼️ A 2005 RL. Straight to the point, it’s not turning over? Bought new alternator, starter, battery. Still nothing. What’s sound I do?

Look by your gear shift. You should see a small tab. Pop off the tab and push the button while simotaniosly turning the key. If it starts your neutral safety switch or range sensor has a fault.

If that doesn't work, look for the key immobilizer indicator on the dash. You key could have lost it's coding. (Usually it still cranks though)

If it still doesn't crank of start, check the starter fuse and start checking for power via test light on fuses and relays.

If that fails, check grounds.

In my RDX it was the range sensor.

Other thing you could try is push the gear lever forward towards the front (towards engine) and turn the key with other hand. Sometimes the shift cable wears and gets loose and and the computer thinks the car is not in park so the transmission range safety switch will cut the power to the starter. This happened in my TL sometimes.
