Default My 2001 mustang won't start

I have a 2001 Mustang with a 3.8V6 engine. The engine just died on me. I tried to boost but no such luck. The engine won't even crank over. Help needed and new to the form. thanks

The lights come on, the anti-theft light blinks, the radio comes on with the key. I'm going to clean up the battery cables and posts and check for voltage in the battery and see what happens from there.

Angry My 2001 Mustang V6 engine won't crank over

Found the problem. The car had belonged to my grandson and I asked him to try and turn the Crank by hand using a socket and prybar. He couldn't turn the crank. The motor is seized. Thanks for your coments.
