Are you saying, it cranks good, but, won't start, or it won't even crank? If it cranks good but won't start, have a helper crank it, while you check for spark at the spark plugs. If you have spark everywhere, check fuel pressure and injector pulse, engine cranking.

If the starter won't even crank, check voltage and ground at the starter. What about your security system?
