Hi, Have you checked the obvious, like is the battery OK, are the battery cable connections OK, are the safety switches OK etc.? What have you tried?

Dave, First thing you will have to check, is engine has seized, remove spark plugs and try to turn engine over by hand. If engine will not turn, it is seized and will have to come apart for further diagnosing of fault. The following links will talk about other checks to make if you find the engine is not seized. You can also do a google search as there is a wealth of info. out there on your problem.

I hope this helped you out, if so let me know by pressing the helpful button.
