This is one of several "simple" approaches you can take to turning the key and getting no start.

I've been battling with intermittent no-start when I turn the key. I knew it was some electrical issue since it would come and go. I thought it was the starter, and have already replaced it again since it was under warranty. And as soon as I did the truck started right up and was fine for several months. It could be that the starter was also wearing out so maybe that didn't hurt. But this is a smoking gun! I pulled the switch out and tried to manually engage it with no success. But as soon as I put the new one on it started strong. These things do simply wear out over time.
