Start with basics. Check that it is getting good strong blue spark by removing a spark plug and installing a spark tester, follow manufacturer instructions. Check that it is getting fuel. If both of these are occurung you should locate a shop manual for the vehicle and fpllow the no start troubleshooting procedures.

If dash warning lights are all flashing rapidly, and you can hear relays in the dash clicking on & off, and engine will not crank, replace the ignition switch. Not the actual key switch, but the electronic portion behind that in the steering column.

Not much info to go on but, the engine needs fuel, compression and spark to run. My guess is you are missing one of those.

I have owned Regals of many years...and when the crankshaft ignition sensor is going bad the car will not start...just turns over... when it is hot. If you let it cool it will start right up...over time it gets worse and more frequent until it won't start at all! Good luck!
