What are the reasons for a car battery having power but failing to start the engine?

There are several reasons why a car battery has power but fails to start the engine: Incorrect gear selection: If the gear is in D (Drive) or R (Reverse), the engine cannot be started. The engine can only be started when the gear is in P (Park) or N (Neutral). Running out of fuel: Apart from a dead battery, the engine will not start if the car is out of fuel. This usually happens when the engine is left running after parking, which drains the fuel and battery, making it impossible to start the car. Fuel pump failure: If the starter motor operates normally when attempting to start the engine but the car still doesn't start, you should check the fuel lines.
