I wish it were that simple but it's and auto, also it's not that it does absolutely nothing it will turn over but it turns over as if the batteries are dead but they aren't and my connections are good positive and ground to the starter and to the block, also I did have the batteries tested so I know they aren't bad

Sounds like a bad starter to me. Make sure your battery has a the amps to turn the starter. Batteries can be funny at times. You may show or have a "fully charged" battery, but as soon as you try to engage the starter, it will fall on its face (hence having volts but very little to no amps). So battery first, then check the starter. You may have to remove them both and take them to a auto parts store to have them properly load-tested.

I'll have to try the starter, I already had it load tested and they both tested good, I really appropriate the help. Any other suggestions if that doesn't work

I also tried to jump start it let it sit for a bit before I tried to start it and I got a couple of good cranks but not enough to get fully started?

Starters can also be funny, as it can test good, but not good enough to turn a high compression diesel engine. "If in doubt, throw it out!" I would just get a new or re-man one, and be done with it. Hope this helps.

BTW, San Clemente is my old stomping grounds. I lived on PICO and surfed that beach for years.

That's what I will do cuz if some how it is looking current in the solenoid it might test ok but like you said not enough to turn a diesel if I'm not mistaken? I've got one on order should be here tonight and I'll throw it on after work and let you know what happens I really appropriate the help thank ypu
