Fresh batteries is a start, check rubber fuel lines and look for cracks as they will suck air and cause for hard start or no start, replace and see if she will start, maybe put 5-10 gallons of fresh diesel in her also, also look for anything that might look out of place or torn up from Mice, rodents , sun, humidity etc, hope this helps

Have you checked for damaged or frayed wires? also did you check the fuses and relays?
