Do you have power (dash, radio, etc) but it won't start or do you have no power whatsoever?

If you have power (dash, radio, etc) but it won't start, check the clutch interlock switch.

If no power at all (everything is dead), then I agree with checking the grounding cable. Be aware that the cable can look perfectly good on the outside but can be corroded internally.
