Hey Donald,
I know you may think this is too simple, but from experience I've found that
most times in situation like yours it's usually something simple. Have you
checked your battery connections for corrosion and tightness? Believe me-
it only takes just a little bit of corrosion and a loose connection and you
got nuttin' brudda! While your at it- check the liquid level in the battery,
check ALL connections to and from the battery. Did you try another battery?
Also,check for voltage (with either a voltmeter or a voltage checker - looks
like an ice pick with a wire coming out of it ) at your ignition switch - could
be a bad ignition switch not switching. Hope I could help.
