1989 Saturn SL1 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

I checked my starter, it was tested and passed. I put it back in and it worked, now it doesnt. I checked the clutch switch plate, it was clicking but now that isnt. Can it still be my starter, the fuse or is it the clutch plate switch

It does not click anymore - no I do not have a multimeter. Could it be the starter relay?

The starter relay's don't fail often getting a multimeter and testing the starter circuit to find the real problem is cheaper then just guessing.
