Autofocus Not Working On Canon Rebel

Recently my autofocus stopped working on my Canon Rebel. It's the original digital Rebel. I've tried changing lenses and it still doesn't help. Any ideas?

Your contacts might be dirty. Take the lens off and run a pencil eraser over the metal contacts that are near the bottom of the lens mount. Try this on both the camera body and your lenses...preferably in a very clean room so dust doesn't get all up in your stuff.

Buy a Nikon

Hate to state the obvious, is the M/AF switch stuck on M - Manual?

Was the on button all the way on ? If it's halfway on it might not focus.
