    The battery?
    It takes far more amperage to start the car than to operate some lights and accessories.

    The starter?
    Corrosion or other internal opens can prevent the starter from engaging.

    Starter relay or circuit?
    Some vehicles have a clutch interrupt switch; others a neutral safety switch.

    Ignition switch?
    If this has poor contact while in the start position, you won't get starter engagement.

    I have same problem, the problem I did sovle is I unplug the starter wire and coil wires and put it back together and it start normal like before all you can do is to look around the engine to find the wire that connect with coil or plug to starter unplug it and plug it back together, if it won't start try to unplug and plug it again all that hook up with engine or take the red and black wire off the battery then put it back on. Don't get confuse and feel free to ask me about it again. Thanks :)
