Did you have a system in there? I had this problem recently but a new starter fixed it. I found out maxima electrical systems aren't to good so I dont use my subs anymore. Hope this helps, sry if it dont. Didn't this kid know it had a prob starting when he bought it?

Most probably ingnition switch (where the key goes) or sticky starter motor (bad grease). Use a meter and check that voltage gets to the starter solenoid when the key is turned to the START position. If it is, then the sticky motor is probably the culprit. If it is not, then most likely the switch.
Both senarios have oft been repeated here.
