Check for loose battery connections and clean battery posts and terminals. Post back with results.

Check the battery voltage with a small load (i.e. interior light). It should be ~11.9 to 12.6 volts depending on the state of the charge. If it drops below 11 volts or so the battery may have a dead cell and need replacing.

If the battery is good try starting it in Neutral instead of Park.
