Re: 2002 bnneville will not start
Sounds like the starter may be bad. You can try tapping on the starter while someone turns the key to the start position. If that doesn't help then you need to see if the small wire on the starter is getting 12 volts when the key is turned to the start position. If the small wire has 12 volts then change the starter.

Re: 2002 bnneville will not start
You could have a full charge in the battery as far as volts but could have a problem with amps. Lift up your back seat and put a multi meter on the battery and have someone try to start it if the voltage drops below 9 volts when you are trying to start the engine then you do not have enough amps to turn the starter over and it is a bad battery. If the volts dont drop much at the battery when trying to start it then check voltage at the starter like said above.

Re: 2002 bnneville will not start
might want to look at the gear shifter switch, move the shifter as you are turning the key
