1st disconnect neg battery cable, then check the connections of all wiring to starter to make sure there's no corrosion, or bad connections. If anything looks corroded, clean it up with fine sandpaper or a wire brush, reconnect and see if it works. If not, remove the starter: disconnect neg battery cable 1st (always), then pos.,then disconnect large cable from starter, then label and remove wires to starter solenoid, some models have a clip holding engine harness (bundle of wires), remove clip and move wires out of the way, remove starter mounting bolts. Reverse to install. Good Luck Countrycurt0

I forgot to mention that even when we are having problems starting the car, it will start immediately if we "push-start" it, but "jump-starting" from another car with booster cables does nothing.
Having same problem however can only start by pushing. Bumped starter with screw driver check all fuses but still will not start with key
