Do you hear a click or anything? If not it could be that the starter solenoid or the clutch pedal switch for the starter. Could also be the connections on the battery cables. You could start by removing all the wires and cleaning all the connections. You can use a meter to check for voltage at the spade treminal at the solenoid when you turn the key to start. If power is there you prolly have a bad solenoid or wires or starter.

i hear a little click but it doesnt turn over i tried bypassing the clutch pedal switch with a wire and it didnt work and the battery connections look good

Well If you hearing the click at the starter its getting power to fire the solenoid. That means the clutch pedal is OK. Polly your starter or the wiring is corroded or dirty.
