You say it is not the battery, so I will assume that it is either new or you had it load tested. When you say the light on the dash light up do you mean all the dash lights, radio, and head light works? If there is no cranking it is most likely the starter is bad.

- You need to get at the ignition switch and see if the switch is bad. You apparently have power to the accessories side but is power reaching the ignition side?
