Well, a van that doesn't start could mean a lot of things but here are a few things you could try. Firstly, the most basic thing is to check the battery, if you haven't tried to charge, jump or replace the battery yet, try this first. Also, check the battery terminals and make sure they are connected. Secondly, you may have a bad starter motor, which can be easily repaired by yourself or at a workshop. If the engine is not turning over at all, it might be an electrical fault. In that case, a tow truck and a mechanic would be helpful. Good luck fixing your van!
