What were the symptoms

when you tried to start it? Did it turn over? How long and how strong? What did it sound like? Is there gas in the tank? Gas smell out the tailpipe?

To start you need spark, gas and a means of turning on the starter and for the solenoid on the starter to activate to engage with the flywheel. Ever had any problems with your ignition switch? Your clutch interlock? Transmission in neutral if a stick? Park if TIP?

Headlights go on bright? Dim when you use the starter?

All the answers could give someone a clue into what might be wrong. Hard to figure out without more info.

Good luck.
