I have a 2007 Cadillac sts. I jumped someones vehicle, parked mine and now mine will not crank. The motor turns and all lights are working, but car will not catch
Jump starting is one of the unwise things to do with a fully computerised vehicle due to the danger of causing a damaging voltage surge. These days jumper cables are available fitted with an anti-surge device to reduce but not eliminate the chance of such a thing happening.
That your engine is cranking but not starting might be coincidence or the electronics might have been damaged. Only systematic checking will be able to determine what is wrong, I suggest the immobiliser is first on the list.
