The car will not start. The battery is fully charged. When I attempt to crank the car all it does is click and try to turn over but it will not crank. Already checked the cables to the battery and they are clean and tight. Plenty of fuel in the car. Starter is good.

Hello,

Ok, you say the Battery is fully charged. Have you have the Batteries CCA(Cold Cranking Amps) Checked. Even if the Battery is fully charged if the Cold Cranking Amps are low or have a bad cell or 2 than your vehicle won't start. Have you tried to jump start it? If not and you can do so, if starts take to auto parts store and have them test the battery.
