it could be alot of thing wrong.is it getting gas?check the fuel pump and gas filter.what about spark,are you getting spark at the plugs?test it by pulling off 1 of the plug wires and check for spark.if there is none,it could be the coil,module,crank sensor.also check the starter.

Ok you might need to charge the battery, there is a chance there is enough power to power the lights and radio because they don't need much power but you need lots to turn over an engine. If the battery is fine.........
when you go to start it, can you hear a whirring noise, like something is loose? Might be a solenoid in the starter.
without any more info or being there to see it I couldn't really say

First have battery tested it could have a dead cell and still work the lights. Then check to see if your getting fuel and spark to plugs. After you have done this re-list with results and more info.

Its likely a flat battery. You might need a jump start. If theres no one around that can help with that, you will need to call a road assistance service, and they will come and jump start your car for you.
Goodluck!

If you go t o Autozone, they can get the engine codes for free or a low price. Send me a message with the trouble codes, I could help you narrow down what could have occurred.

it's probably not the battery.without knowing what year and make it's hard to tell what is going on. if the car is cranking over it's probably something electrical or fuel related. if it's not even turning over it has a starter or solenoid issue. good luck

could be a million things.. first buy a new battery and check the starter for a good place to start
