Question type: Maintenance & Repair

02 Mercury Sable 90,000mi.
  was running absolutely fine since i bought it a
month ago. Yesterday ran around did great all day;
today I go to start it and it won't start.
All my lights and radio comes on battery looks

It may sound really simple but check that your gear select is in park all the way. Foot on the brake and put it in neutral then back to park.
