If its cranking ove and will not start do below
Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine atleast 3/16 in away from ground have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs,coil's resistances,cap and rotor /distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, ECM,Ignitor camshaft and crankshaft sensors and computer. Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
No crank at all-could be the starter relay, transmission range switch and ignition switch

I have a new battery, a new starter, and 3 new plugs. It is not turning over [lights up, though] and it won't start! I am at my wits end!

Is it cranking over and will not start or just won't crank over/nothing happens when you hit the key
