have you checked voltage at the starter? if voltage looks good, then next thing i would try is to loosen the starter, and hold it in your hand as a friend or someone else tries to crank the motor. if the starter turns, then thats not the issue.

Default This sometimes works.

Sounds like a bad alternator to me possible starter problem.
Try a light tap on the side of the starter don’t dent it or anything.
I usually use the wooden end of the hammer and bang on it twice.
If it starts then it’s the starter.
Take the alternator to a small motor shop and have them check it and rewind it cost about 1$ per amp.
I put a 150amp kit in mine.
