Check for 12 volts at the small wire on the starter with key in crank position. If it has power then the starter needs to be replaced. If none, then check the clutch switch mounted on the pedal assembly. Should have power on one side, then the other when the clutch is pushed in

So you think is the starter sir. But sometimes it start but you have to start the car a lot of times to start. And if you start the car there's no crank sound its just quite, you couldn't even hear a click sound. But there's power.

When it fails to crank, get something to tap the starter and try cranking. If it works, time to replace the starter motor.
