Hi,
When you say it won't crank, do you mean the starter isn't engaging and turning the engine so it can start or the starter is working, but the engine won't start?
Here is a link that discusses the most common causes of a crank no start:

Here is one that explains how to check a starter.

If you let me know exactly what is happening, I would be happy to guide you.
Let me know.
