Re: no power to starter

There's 2 power supplies to the starter solenoid: constant hot from the battery, and the ignition switch. Which isn't going hot?

Re: no power to starter

The ignition always hot feed is from the starter through a fusible link connection where the battery cable connects at the starter.

There are 3 fusible links at the starter only one of these has 2 red wires that is the one you need to check. Otherwise you have a break in the ignition wire.
post back if you need more help.
