no start, nothing when I turn the key

Have you tried jumping the vehicle? If yes and nothing changes check connections. Confirm there is a good ground. Verify continuity on the negative & positive cables.

How are you measuring battery voltage? 14.xx isn't normal unless the vehicle is running. A battery straight off the charger will only be about 12.8.

Have you tried charging the battery?

Turn your headlights on... do they come on?

Somebody up the line mentioned trying jumping it . Hook up a car to it with jumpers and leave the car running, then you are getting alternator as well as sufficient power. If you get nothing then, not even radio or dashboard lights then the ignition switch is a prime suspect. Someone also mentioned the neutral safety switch but that should not affect lights, horn, etc.

Check your ignition switch. Make sure there is power getting to it. All your power gets turned on via that. If no power there, yhats where I'd start. If power is getting there, chech and see if its leaving there to the accessories. If not, your switch is bad.

Get the battery checked. Voltage along will NOT tell you if the battery is good. If it's got no amperage(cca reading, or ca) it will not work, period. Take it out and bring it to a parts store and get it tested as they can load test it. And as mentioned 14+ volts is to much to be reading from a battery that is just sitting there not in the process of being charged.

Ok, connect the starter box, and try the headlights again.... unless when you tried the headlights before you had the truck connected to something besides your battery.
