If you dont have one go pick up a Haynes Repair Manual for your car. Trust me they are a help.

In my Haynes repair manual for 95-01 sunfires possible problems could be:
1. battery terminal connections faulty
2. battery faulty
3. gear not in park
4. broken, loose or disconnected wiring in the starting circuit
5. starter motor pinion jammed in flywheel ring gear
6. starter solenoid faulty
7. starter motor faulty
8. ignition switch faulty
9. Starter pinion or flywheel teeth worn or broken
10. Defective fusible link
