yeah battery is brand new

Make sure your battery is properly connected. Just because its new doesn't mean its connected properly.

MAKE SURE THE TERMINALS/GROUND ARE ON CORRECTLY

How many miles on the car?
How much gas in the tank?
Have you checked if the pump is getting power?

Check the voltage on the battery.
If its above 12.6 (I think)
Then check the voltage at the starter.(Should be the same)
If it is than give your starter a wack on with a hammer.
Then try to start it.

Seems like your having an electrical issue.
