wont start or even attempt to start.

not dead, everything works in acc/on position, but engine wont crank when i turn key.

i thought it may be a problem w/ my remote starter (Python alarm), but a search brought up a few results pointing to ignition switch/solenoid.

is there ANYTHING i can do to get this SOB started 1 time (only SLIGHTLY handy) so i can drive it to the dealer? i'm in brewster ny and my dealer is Mt. Kisco Hummer in, u guessed it, Mt. Kisco...gonna be one helluva towing bill!!!! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif

thanks in advance and happy turkey day!

Are you still on Warranty, if so, just call the 1-800 #

how do i jump the starter thru wheel well? (sorry, not much experience)

can an idiot like myself do more damage by attempting it?

and no, no more warranty http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif

I had the same thing happen a week ago-I simply turned the key off/on mulitple times in rapid sucession. Old GM starter trick. The solinoid has gotten either stuck or pitted.
