Hit a pothole, car won't start Ok, I just picked up this car. So it super new to me. I hit a pothole (hard) and now it won't turn over. Lights, gauges, radio all work. I can bump start the car. No clicking from the starter. Looking for some where to start looking or opinions. Is it the starter, relay or ??? Thanks.

Could be that when you hit the pothole, the starter wires became loose.
I don't see how the starter relay could be the problem, but if it was that big of a pot hole its possible it became loose. You can easily swap it with the AC relay to test it out.
