Hello;
Check the voltage at the battery. It should be in the 12.5+ volt range. Check your connections also to be sure they are clean and tight. A quick check to see if there is enough juice to crank the engine over is to turn the ignition switch to start and at the same time honk the horn. If the horn blows and the starter does not crank, you probably have a bad starter.
The starter is located on the radiator side of the engine block and is held to the transaxle by 2 bolts. Follow the positive cable to the starter. Hope this helps;
Thanks;

It sound like you might need a new battery. What you need to do is remove the
battery and take it your local auto parts store and have them quick charge your
battery then apply a load test on the battery.
If your battery is OK. Then there are a couple things that could go wrong. No
voltage from the ignition switch to the starter solenoid. Next is the starter
solenoid has gone south faster than Willy Coyota can catch the Road Runner. If
both are bad then each needs to be replaced or fixed. Also one more thing the
alternator gone south. Get you can running and check the voltage across the
battery while the car is running it should be about 13.8 to 14.1 volts.
