Charge the battery for 12 hrs and try again.

Yes it is in park position,then also tried it in neutral position and still won't start.

Does anything happen when you try to start?? Does it just clik Click? Or try to crank but slowly?? Or just do nothing??

If the battery was weak then everything else would dim or shut off when attempting to crank. If this is not happening then the solenoid is bad, the starter motor has a dead spot (one of ours had this issue) or the ignition switch/neutral safety switch have an issue. I'm voting for the starter solenoid/motor though.

Once I had a problem where a C Class wouldn't start (battery good but no crank). On questioning, I found the driver had locked the trunk with the key. I found the trunk lock was overlocked by about 90 degrees. I turned the lock anticlockwise 90 degrees and then the starter function normally.

Go figure!
