things to check
1. Remove starter from engine. apply 12volts to it for a sec and see if it cranks(have to hold it down or bolt it to something so it doesn't move). Check the little gear in it that turns the engine.
2. Flywheel might be missing some teeth. Try roll starting the engine
3. Check all fuses in car.
