Did you try to jump start it? how old is the battery? if it's older than 4 years,replace it.

Check your CPS(crank position sensor/knock sensor)...

I have a 1994 1500 surbuban and the altanator starter and battery is good. But I drove it home one day and now it won't start turn over or nothing. Sometimes I can get a jump and it starts but today not even a jump would start it
