2001 Chev. Blazer Won't Start
The battery shows around 10 volts. Kinda low. But I would think it would still be enough to start. Also, the dash lights all come on. When I turn the key to ignition, it will not even try and turn over. Everything but the check engine and battery light turns off. Any help to troubleshoot would be good.

10volts with next to no load is very low. If you have a battery charger, try charging it back up.
How old is the battery? It's possible you have a dead cell. If you have alternate transportation, you can remove the battery and take it to an Advanced Auto or Autozone and have them test it. If you are able to get the truck started, you can take the whole truck to one of the aforementioned stores and they can check the alternator as well.
