I turn key, power seems to be on, but no noise from starter. The lights do not dim when I try and start. I had the battery tested, they said it needed a charge, but was still good. Had battery charged, reinstalled battery but the same result, no slow crank, nothing. What could the problem be?

Hey Ken,

It sounds like the starter is no good, here is a guide to test it and a guide to give you an idea on how to replace it.
