Okay, I went out one day turned the key on and all the dash lights lit up but would not crank over. We ended up basically hot-wiring it. I figured maybe the safety neutral switch went bad. Got a used one from the junk yard and nothing changed. I'm baffled. Changed the starter and new ignition switch too.
