2002 Camry won't start

I have a 2002 Camry, my mom ran it to the store & when she came back out it wouldn't start up again.. we cleaned the cables, checked the fuses, left the cables off to try to reset because i have had to do that before & tried jumping it off but no luck... the lights come on just as always not dim, radio / windows/ locks everything works as usual so i believe the battery is fine

called a tow truck , he then did all the things we had already done again no luck

anyone have any ideas ?

I had a similar problem with my '02. Mine however was due to bad gas. The car ran fine for 3 days then all of a sudden I had nothing. The only thing that I could do was drain the gas tank and fill it with gas I purchased from a different gas station then the one I had filled up from 3 days prior. Then, it fired up and has been running fine ever since. Seems as if I just got a bad batch of gas.

From what u researched the Camry's are very temperamental about gas. So, you might give that a try.

took it to the shop, i had a feeling might be the starter but my dad made me doubt myself & had me believing it was the battery, well it ended up being the starter after all, car is fixed, my insurance covered parts & labor so thankfully no big bill to pay.. thanks for any help
