When I turn the key, nothing happens except I hear the whine of the fuel pump. No cranking, no turning over...

This happened a few weeks ago intermittently over a few days. It would start and run fine, then zilch. Then back to normal. Normal means it starts right away, no struggle. Although the battery seemed strong, I topped up the electrolyte, cleaned the terminals and boosted it. It started and was fine until last night, during an attempted warm start.

Today, I just installed a new battery and still zilch. The fuses are all fine. The lights etc are strong.

I've shifted in and out of park, jiggled, still nothing.

I'd very much appreciate thoughts on what else to do with this daily commuter. wagon/auto/250k+

thanks!
