Can you do this,
Turn the headlamps on and attempt to start the engine. What do the headlamps do, go dim, stay the same?
If the headlamps go dim, I would suspect a problem with the battery cables. or a seized engine.
Can you turn the engine over by hand using either the alternator pulley or anyone that is connected to the belt that is easy to reach?
There may be more to this than we presently know, is there?
