When you try starting it, does anything happen? For example, do you hear a click from the starter or a relay?

Have you had the battery tested to confirm it hasn't failed or is weak? Take a look through this link and let me know if it helps:

Also, let me know if the battery has been tested and exactly what happens when you try starting it.

Take care,
