since he got a new battery i guess it wont attempt to start?

batter conections clean and tight at battery, relay and starter?

any clicking noise? may be bad starter relay

turn on headlights, crank vehicle do lights dim, if not there is no power being used.

check faulty ignition switch and starter relay.
