Smack the Starter Motor with a small hammer...then attempt a restart. Also check the battery and starter motor connections for a powdery white funk material. That's corrosion and needs to be cleaned and made shinny. If no favorable result...you need a voltmeter for further diagnosis. Get back to us with results.
