Jump the 2 large connectors on the solenoid (carefully) .. if it starts or turns over while connection is jumped, replace the solenoid. NEXT , Use a voltmeter set on to accept DC voltage , over the 12 volt range, red meter wire on starter connection, black meter wire on frame ground)no painted surface, have a friend push the starter button, it SHOULD show 12+ volts, if it shows 12+ volts and nothing works... rebuild the starter! If not, go backwards towards the solenoid, then to the battery. The battery may have voltage, BUT NO amperage!!
Hi. Depending on your skill level the starting point would be check "ALL" the fuses with a test light/multimeter. Next point would probably be check the starter itself, Again with a test light or multimeter you should have the main positive to the starter - make sure you have good battery voltage and check this whilst attempting to crank. Then the crank feed itself which is the small wire to the starter solenoid, Again check for good voltage whilst attempting to crank. If there is voltage on both then make sure the starter has a good earth by using the starter motor body as the earth whilst testing the main feed at the starter. If you have good main feed and crank the starter has failed. If not you need to post your test results for further help, Jon
