Ironically when I've taken it to my trustworthy mechanic --- it starts! Any thoughts?
Have you checked the simple things like battery terminals and cables for corrosion also grounding. Also the starter motor for cable connections, the brushes in the starter may be sticking and not moving down to take up wear on the brush face(s).
Relay control module causes problems a lot. See 'Mystery no start' for that problem.
How old is the battery? That is bound to be questioned but not by me. LOL
How many miles on the car? Knowing that helps with possibilities.
