Hi:
You will need to check to see if the starter is getting power. Have a helper turn the key to the start position while you check for power at the small wire on the starter. If there is power, replace it. Just disconnect the battery, remove the wires to the starter, and the two bolts holding the starter to the trans bell housing. Reverse the order to replace.
