Welcome to the forum!

From your description, it sounds like the starter is the problem. Since it sounds like you've searched the forum, you've probably read and already insured that your battery cables are clean and tight, so we'll assume that is not the problem. Plus, a bad connection would usually lead to a series of clicking.

You can try tapping on the starter to see if that will allow the starter to spin for a bit. If so, your starter is on its way out, so don't think tapping it is a long term fix.

If tapping has absolutely no effect, take it to your local auto parts store where they can test the starter on the bench to verify it is bad.
