Start with checking to see if there is power to the starter. Have a helper turn the key to the start position while you check for voltage to the smaller wire on the starter. You should have 12v. If you do, chances are the starter is bad. If you don't get power, then you need to trace the wiring back to the starter relay to see if there is power there.
