Hi jschef and TY for the donation What you need to do here is test the battery and connections-if okay Have helper hold key at start position-check for power on the black and yellow wire on the starter solenoid-if power is indicated get the starter tested or replaced. No power-check for power at the park/neutral switch located right side of transmission black and red wire-No power here replace the ignition switch -power present replaced the park/neutral switch. Need more further assistance, don' hesitate
