Troubleshooting steps...hope they help:
-With a multi or volt meter, attache lids to battery terminals...read voltage as someone else attempt to start it...if volts reading drops below 10voltsDC, you battery is bad!
-If the voltage stays above 10 volts and the starter "click" and do not turn, use a broom stick and hit the starter as someone attempt to crank it...if it starts, you may need a new starter OR battery cables going to the starter. Before you buy a new starter get it checked by Auto Zone or Advance.
Good luck!
