Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.
Make sure the battery terminals are clean and tight. If they are, I suspect the starter is bad. Here is a link that shows how to check a starter. Take a look through it and if possible, try the test indicated in this link:

If you can't test it, then I suggest removing it and having it bench tested at a parts store. Here are directions for removal and replacement of a starter:
Before removing a starter, make sure the battery is disconnected.

I attached a picture which indicates the starter location.
Do this and let me know the results or if you have other questions.
Take care,
Joe
