if u have battery voltage on large terminal andvoltage at trigger terminal while cranking and still wont start. chances are starter smoked. unless batt voltage is low. or could have a dead cell in batt. id take batt & starter to autozone to have tested. just dont throw parts at her. have them tested first.
