If the car has an automatic transmission, try shifting into neutral and see
if the engine cranks. If it does, then the neutral safety switch is
probably the culprit.
If the car has a manual transmission, try push starting.
If those measures do not work, disconnect the battery cables and see if you
can turn the engine over by hand by putting a wrench on the lower pulley
bolt.
