Need to elaborate more. The engine is cranking but not starting? Your pressing the start button and the starter is not turning the engine over?
Have you had recent work done on it?

if the starter wines like its turning but theres no engagment the starter isint coming out /faulty


if there is one click when u press and the gauges and radiao and everything turns on it could be a faulty starter or weak battery

if you know for a fact the battery and the starter are good and the above happens check your bcm and make sure no water from the a/x fan on top has dripped down on it and getting into the plug causing the car to not start

if the switch isint doing anything maybe its just the ignition switch
