engine wont kick over	Sign In

I have a 2000 jeep grand Cherokee Lardo with 85,000 miles on it and it wont start up. The battery seem ok cause all the lights turn on and everything but when I turn the key all i get is it trying to turn over once or twice then.....nothing. Ive cleaned out the throttle body and put a new IAC on it recently. I have to get it the run at least to get it to the shop. Any ideas as to what is going on?

The power it takes to light your lights and the power required to crank the eng is way different. Either put car on a charger if you have one or remove batt and take to parts house and have it charged and tested.
