Are you saying the starter won't even crank? Check the battery and cables. Do the headlites work, dash lites, anything?

Yes, no headlites, dash lites or anything. Doesn't even attempt to turnover.

You need to make sure the battery has a full charge. Battery cables good and clean. Use a voltage tester, check for voltage, fuses--fusible links.
