If the starter won't crank, check the starter wiring circuit for voltage. One wire is battery voltage, hot all the time. The other wire goes hot when the starter relay is energized. To check for voltage use a test lite. Any testing at the starter make sure tranny is in park or neutral and the parking brake is set.
