If the battery is fully charged and it will not turn over.You may have a few things wrong. Bad starter,bad key switch,bad soileniod.To trouble shoot this get the battery tested at any auto place,if the battery is good then make sure you are getting power to the starting solenoid. If you are getting power try jumping the solenoid with a small wire from one of the big terminals to one of the smaller on the solenoid.
