Try checking all your connections to make sure the copper in the cords hasent gone bad
Have the battery checked to make sure its good. If it is, the next thing to check are the battery cables, in particular the ground cables. Make sure you have a good ground directly to the engine block. Also make sure the cab and frame have good grounds also, this doesn't have anything to do with the starting problem but it will help avoid other pesky electrical problems down the road.
Clean and tighten all of the cable connections.
If there's still a problem, have the starter checked.
