I put the key in the ignition and turn it forward,all gauges,etc light no start
What is your question?
This happens periodically. with repeated tries it eventually starts. several days or even weeks of daily driving go by with no problems and then it acts up again. Today it started normally and I drive 3 hours in a driving rain. After it sat all day it wouldnt start at first and took several tries before it finally did. Drove it about 25 miles then shut it off and immediately tried to restart it without success. I waited about an hour and tried again and it did start on the 4th or 5th try. I ensured it was fully in park and tried it in neutral with no immediate change.

First thought of 2 possibilities, bad connection (like corrosion INSIDE of battery terminal connector) or , I think , more likely a bad cell in the battery. NEED to have someone with experience with those symptoms and has seen enough bad cell situations to catch it though.---How old is the battery? Worth replacing just due to age yet?
