First, make sure that both battery terminals (on battery) are clean, AND tight. Your electronics can function without having enough juice to turn the motor over...If not the posts...sounds like the starter has worn out..
If you're not getting any kind of a click with a turn of the key it sounds to me like the starter is not getting power. If you turn the key to the start position and don't hear anything, not even a click it's usually because the starter is not getting power, or it has seized. Try swapping the starter relay with another similar relay to test it. If that doesn't do the trick, remove the starter and take it to any parts store to have it tested for free. (it is also possible that the battery only has enough juice to power the lights and not engage the starter after sitting for six months...I know you said you charged it, but if you happen to take the starter to have it tested, do the same for the battery.)
Very possible bad starter. Do you hear any clicking noise at the starter? You can try taking a long metal rod and smacking on the starter where the solenoid is while someone is trying to start the vehicle and see if the starter will engage at that time. Good luck.
if you turn headlights on and turn key to start do you hear clicking? if so starter is possibly bad,lets trouble shoot your problem.suggest you check the fuses under hood in black box,make sure those are good. when you turn the key, you should hear at least a click or else the starter is not drawing current.try turning the headlights on and at same time turn the key and try to start, if lights go dim the starter is drawing current, does it click? if so then bad starter. if no noise at all,,still could be a bad starter.suggest that you remove the starter and have it checked out.also make sure the car is in park for sure before you do any of this. hope this helps!!
You said the battery is fine, does that mean you ran a load test on it? If the battery is fine, it could still be the starter I have had a starter just quit before and not make any noise. I have also had wires come loose on the starter and have had the ground get loose and grungy.
starter wont click because there's not enough "juice" to turn it over. this isnt because of the battery as you have just replaced it. it is due to a bad alternator recharging the battery as you drive. if it were only a fuse it would be the solenoid in the starter. but if it had started after you installed the battery then its not the solenoid. solution: buy a refurbished alternator and
Try jump starting the car just to see if it is not your battery or starter.If it still does not click or turn over check the speed sensor at the tranny.Cruise control problems happen when this sensor goes out. Oh, First try removing the negative cable, let sit for a minute, then replacing the cable. I am assuming your battery is good.(charged).
