The next things to check would be fuses, the alternator and the generator.

Answer 2

Use an old crappy screwdriver and jump the terminals on the starter solenoid.
Follow the positive wire from the battery to the starter solenoid.
Next to where that wire hooks up there is another wire just like it going down to the starter. Make contact between the two posts.
It's goint to spark a lot. But if it works, change your solenoid.

if the car sat for a long period of time the engine froze up. remove spark plugs, spray alot of wd40 where the plugs go let it sit over night put plugs back in and try starting the car, also check your wires make sure the starter is wired right or your ignition system might be the problem, switch, module etc.
