i drove my car to school and everything was good. when I was done with class I went to the car and turn the ignition and nothing happen. the battery is only two years old and I tried boosting it but the battery was good. blinkers worked, so did the horn and radio. I press down on the clutch while giving it gas in both neutral and first but nothing looks to turn on my car. HELP.

You most likely need a starter. attempt pushing the car carefully at low speed, 25 mph, and pop the clutch with the key on and in gear. It should start. Have the pushing car backoff before you pop the clutch. If it starts, you need a starter. If not check all connections, and completely recharge battery. Check the ignition switch too. Good luck.

yup. push started the car and drove from my school home. but now the only problem is trying two find the starter.. I don’t have clue where it's.

Battery is good. If it isn't cranking at all, you most likely have a bad solonoid. it is a $10 part. easy to replace.

If your battery is good you may have a starter problem.

Please look on the floor for weird amber colored plactic pieces. there's a grommet on the clutch pedal that pushes the clutch switch. When the plastic grommet gets old it crumbles. When the clutch switch isn't pushed by the grommet the starter isn't energized but everything else works. Only about $5.00 at nissan
