Make sure your battery is fully charged and try again. Or try a jump start from another vehicle. If it still doesn't start, then you probably have a bad starter or loose cable. Starters take a lot more power than just the small accessories like a radio and lights. Also be careful to get the polarity right on the jumper cables and charger.
