Hello, It's really impossible to guess or give any tips without some hands on testing. The only thing - if you have a new battery that is properly connected and fully charged - that would prevent the vehicle from cranking over is if you had a blown fuse related to the starting system, or if the starter motor suddenly was also suspect. This is highly doubtful, coincidental-wise. So, first, verify your new battery is fully charged, verify all fuses are intact, and verify that all connections are proper and secure. Those are the best recommendations from my computer keyboard. You may need to secure assistance from a shop near you.
