thanks!! turned out the battery tester they used on it was faulty. Put the dead battery on a charger for a few hours and started right up!Test BOTH batteries with multi-meter while someone turns the key to try to start it.
You should see 12v or more at both batteries.
If one battery has a dead cell, jumping from a 12volt vehicle may not be enough current to lock in the 24 volt solenoid and turn the starter over.
You said you get a buzzing noise when you try to start it?
Weak batteries can cause a very rapid clicking as the solenoid tries to engage, then bounce back, engages again
