I'd start by removing the battery cables and cleaning all of the connections. You will need you radio code but I'm guessing that you need it now anyway.

If that doesn't work the next thing to check is the ground connections to the body and to the motor for signs of corrosion.

Lastly, there have been some issues with the main power wire where it goes into the fuse box. That one is tougher to get to.
