What would be wrong if a Geo Tracker 94 does not start but the battery charge is ok?

I had this problem over the weekend. If the starter does not engage, check the voltage across the lugs of the starter, then check the connection of the spade connectors under the lugs. I found one of the spades had broken and was not providing power to the solenoid.

Why will 1995 Honda Civic DX only start when jumped with jumper cables- it won't start with a jumpstart pack that is fully charged- Ran for 30 min to charge and no start- Alternator or ignition switch?
If it were the ignition switch, the vehicle would not start even with a jump. The battery is either not holding a charge or the alternator is not providing the charge to the battery. You can have the battery and the alternator checked (usually free of charge) at an auto parts store,

Why is my 2004 Mercury Monterey make a clicking noise and won't start?
I would suspect the battery has been discharged, is defective, or you have loose or corroded battery terminals. Remove and clean the terminals and if that does not solve the problem charge the battery with a battery charger. If it will not take a charge then replace the battery.
A car salesman had to 'charge' the battery to a brand new car in a dealership showroom for it to be taken out for a road test will driving it around the block for few minutes 'charge' the battery?
No, it takes longer than a few minutes of running to properly charge a battery that was too low to start a car. However, if the dealer properly charged the battery, for the proper length of time, you are OK. If it was a "start charge", then no. The bottom line is the electrolyte's specific gravity, a measure of charge. Of interest also is the reason why it was discharged to start with - I would ask the dealer, and I would insist on a full starting / charging system performance test.
What would be the problem if a 1997 Chrysler Sebring convertible will not start does not crank?
If the engine will not even crank, then suspect a defective battery or starter. Start by removing both battery cables and cleaning the cable connections and battery posts. Reconnect them and see if it starts. If not put a battery charger on the battery and fully charge it. If it will not accept a charge is is defective. It the vehicle starts then you may have a defective alternator. If the battery is good and it still will not start, suspect a bad starter. You will have to remove it and have it tested.
91 regal won't start in -2 weather battery is full charge car does nothing?
If it does nothing you have a loose or corroded battery connection. If it clicks and will not start then the starter may be frozen and or defective. I would also try jump starting it to make sure the battery is good even though it shows full charge.
Can radio on and charge battery at the same time?
Yes, your can charge the battery with the radio on. But why would you want to do this? It will just take longer to charge with something drawing current from the battery.
How do you get out of park when have a flat battery - automatic?
If your battery is dead then you are going nowhere therefore why would you need to take the car out of park? Get a jump start from another car with a good battery and then you can start your car and drive to the nearest battery dealer and buy a new battery if need be. Otherwise just put a battery charger on your battery and let it fully charge.

What would cause a battery not to take a charge?
Dead cell in battery, replace it.
Someone once said that if you charge your brand new cell or mobile phone before you turn it on or something that you will have better battery life in the future any truth in this?
You have to charge your brand new battery to FULL before using it. 24 Hours recommended. Doing this doesn't extend the battery life but if you do not charge it to full and start to use it the battery would have a shorter life span.
