There are many reasons why a car's engine won't turn over using the starter. Here is a short list of only a few of the reasons:

* the car's battery needs charging up because it cannot supply sufficient current to power the starter; * the car's battery is too old to hold its charge or is faulty so that it needs to be replaced; * the car's starter motor has a fault and may need to be repaired or replaced; * the car's starter circuit is faulty - maybe a fuse has blown because something like the starter's solenoid is taking too much current; * the engine has seized up because it has been neglected for a long time.

If you don't know how to find out the actual reason why your car's engine won't turn over you will have to ask a friend who does know about cars to help you. If you cannot do that, the best general advice anyone can give you is to call a car rescue service or an auto repairer to advise you what has gone wrong.
