1986 GMC Sierra V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

I was having a problem restarting my truck after I had driven it for a while. Now it won't start at all. The truck does not turn over at all. The battery gauge marks very low, but the battery is charged all the way.I even put my gel battery from my other truck which is charged and it still won't turn over.I turned on the lights and tried to start it and the lights stay bright.I tried jump starting it and nothing happens. The only things that come to mind are the starter or solenoid, ignition module, or the neutral switch. Is there an inline fuse anywhere?Please help me.

No cramk at all/nothing/nada
Causes: could be the battery/connections, starter, park/neutral switch and ignition switch.

Thanks for your quick reply.I know that the battery and cables are good.I'm going to remove and check the starter today.About the ignition switch,i did have a problem with it still buzzing after i take the key out.I just moved it back and forth to make it stop buzzing.On my other truck(1988 Chevy),my instrument lights stay on also.So,i move the ignition back and forth until they go out.Hum.Thanks again for your reply.
