What happened immediately before this problem manifested?

Have you checked the key cylinder switch?

IIRC; there is at least 1 "IGN" relay.

dash light would come on but would not crank

Okay.
So, everything is fine when you parked the car; then the next morning nothing? Did anything happen to the car between "works fine" and "nothing"?

I am trying to help, but prying information out is boring.

my son drives this car and has blown a fuse for the inj ing mod (#45 underhood) 2 weeks before. one morning about a week ago he came back in the house and said the hhr would not start. what you said is what I has been told to me by my son. thanks for your help

Have you checked the battery condition to ensure it has a full charge and is capable of more than just supplying voltage? If it was 12 volts that was measured with a volt meter - you need to charge it or get a new battery. 12 volts is too low - it should be reading 13v+, and have the amperage to go with it.

Well, then it's broke!

I can offer no further advice, beyond "Find a mechanic".

At least, that's what my wife's sister's stepson said.

I'm tired of pulling teeth, now.

Check for loose ground wires and loose fuse box halves, get the battery load tested it could be time for a new battery

- typically when people come here with third-party cars and third-party info, not much good info or advice can be given, as they too often result in a game of 20 questions. So follow up on the advice given so far, and get back with the results.
