If the starter isn't working, have a helper turn the key to the start position while you check for power to the small wire on the starter. If there is power, the starter is most likely bad. If there is no power, check the starter relay then work your way back to the ignition switch. This sounds like the starter is having problems or the battery needs to be load tested these guides can help us fix it.
