1975 Chevy c10 454 engine after 3 or 4 startattempts in freezing cold weather where the engine was running a short while after the last one, the engine died due to no choke connected.
After that I will get no response from the starter motor, I cannot hear the solenoid and the parkingbreake lap does not light up when the ignition is turned on. The parkingbreake light does come alive when I turn the key to crank but nothing else happens.

Load test the starter motor if okay-check and test park and neutral switch and ignition switch-double check battery condition and connections

I doesent seem like the starter motor, sice there is no sound from the solenoid.I have checked the park and neutral switches an they seems ok Battery is good and when I turn the ignition on, everything seems to work fine, it is just the park-light that dont light up like it use to before cranking.
I was thinking maybe there is a fusible link that is broken?
Do you know where it is located?

Did you check for power at the NSS if there's none there you have a bad ignition switch-at the starter motor solenoid you should have power there when the engine is being crank over on the purple wire on the small terminal.
