    Yes I have searched the topic....

    This isn't my specially so I'm not positive what to check. I just got done putting my bumper back on the truck after painting it and now the truck won't start. All electronics work but it won't even crank at all when I turn the key. A jump doesn't work either. Tapped the starter a few times and still doesn't work. Could I have hit something during the process and ripped a wire or something? Or could it be a huge coincidence that my starter went out when I was done. Nothing was wrong before removing bumper. It was dark out at the time so I couldn't really see but what should I check for? Don't know what else to try and can't drive it anywhere to get it checked!! Any input is appreciated!!

    Can you hear the starter solenoid fire?

    Nope. Can't hear a thing. Now that I keep thinking about it I feel like it has to be a connection somewhere. I didn't work with anything electrical though

    Check if the starter / starter solenoid is getting juice, and work your way upstream.

    Does your truck have an alarm with immobilizer?

    How can I check that? And I'm not sure to be quite honest
