    Sounds like a loose connection. Check your battery cables.

  • Take out your battery and bring it to your local Auto-zone, they can check the voltage. You might need a new one. Charging it doesn't mean you're good to go. Or get a loaner, install it and crank the starter. If it doesn't turn, your starter needs a replacement as well assuming the electricals are OK.
