Is it cranking or not?  
Cranking is the engine is turning over- trying to start, but will not actually fire and start.  
Not cranking is you turn the key and the engine does nothing. Lights and such may still work, but the engine does not react at all.

Which is happening?

Also, if it isn’t cranking, do you hear a click when you turn the key?
