I had this exact issue. After screwing around with the multimeter, wasting a good amount of time, I discovered the negative battery cable connector was corroded, and it wasn't grounding sufficiently for the amperage draw when you crank the starter.

Do your lights go dim when you turn the key, trying to crank it?
