The car will not start, but all dashboard lights/headlights will come on. No noise can be heard when turning the key to the START position.
The car will have slow or labored cranking. Sometimes it will have just enough power to start the car, other times, it won't even crank.
In my case, the motor was so stiff, my battery cable wires were starting to short out. If you try turning the motor several times over and smell electrical-based smoke because of this shorting out issue, Your starter is probably bad.
Oh, one more tip. Different auto parts stores can check out your starter to see if it's bad-- but be aware that when they test out your starter, it is only with a simple electric current. They don't put any strain on the starter motor. In my case, they told me my starter was still good. I bought a new starter anyway, put it in my car, and my car has never started up so well.
