That is a hard question to answer when we do not know what it IS doing. Does the starter "click"? Does it turn "slow"?, Does it do "nothing at all"?

There is a wire that plugs into the starter. Try unplugging it and measuring the voltage when the key is turned to start. If you are getting 12 volts at that wire when the key is turned to start, the problem is in the starter. If there is no voltage on that wire when the switch is turned to start, the problem is between the switch and the starter or the ignition switch itself.

Remember, to do this test, you MUST measure the voltage when the key is turned to start. There is NO power on this wire when the key is in any position other than start.

Let us know what you find and give some additional detail and maybe someone can come up with additional ideas.

Yes I checked that wire no voltage when I turn the key that wire goes to a relay the to the switch ... I replaced that relay already and still nothing...it will not crank at all...

Jumper a wire from the small wire to the big positive cable on the starter. Disconnect the lead coming to the small connection first. If the starter operates, then you probably have a fuse blown or a bad switch. If the starter does not operate, then you have dirty battery terminals, bad cable, or bad ground connection. Sometimes low power circuits can work, but the starting load will cause dirty cables to open. To me, your problem sure sounds like a fuse, but all this is a guess without hands-on.

Check the terminal at the switch that goes to the start circuit and verify that you have power "at the switch" when in start position. If not, you have a bad switch ... if you do, check the next "switch" in line (like the seat safety switch) along with any fuses or relays.

It does sound like either a bad ignition switch or bad fuse.
