**No crank at all/nothing/nada when key is engage to starting position

Could be the starter, starter relay, clutch switch/park and neutral switch/transmission position switch and ignition switch assuming the battery condition and connections are good. Note:If it doesn't apply disregard.

The car does start when its jump stared from the high current relay center, so, that means solenoid and starter is ok. Dash still blacked out and ignition key still inoperative, this leaves safety switch mounted on transmission suspect. Im putting the car in for diagnostic testing to make sure I get the right repair
