My pathfinder wont turn over, the battery is fully charged, fuseable liks r ok, power is getting to the starter and ignition switch. When I turn the key all of the systems seem to turn on but I only get a click from under the hood when I turn the key to the start position. Where else can I check?

Try remote starting it from the starter solenoid if it cranks the engine over-

Check fuse K 10amp if okay test the inhibitor switch on the transaxle and the starter relay

Thank you I did try to arc the starter across the two terminals with no respons, I did however notice very little spark, no more than 1/4" despite a fully charged battery. Does this indicate other problems?

If battery and connection is ggod all the way to the starter and you short out the starter and nothing happens-I suggest you get the starter load tested something is wrong with it.
