Ground the alligator clip of the test light to the (-) post of the battery. Point of test light in IG-. Crank the engine ...the Test light should blink.

Corroded battery connections comes to my mind. Faulty starter motor relay may be another cause. Might be a bad PN switch. We start the diagnosis using a Digital Volt Meter....and a Voltage Drop Test on the Cranking Cicuit. You might consider a properly executed Jump Start. Careful now ...if this JS is not done correctly....big$$$$$$ repairs could result.
