No power to Starter?

After transmission swap, there is no power going to the starter. Brand new battery, all connections cleaned, everything good, bolts etc, just no power going to starter. Only way I can start is via bypass.

I had a problem a few weeks ago if I tried to use one of my spare keys it wouldn't start unless I used a certain key, used said key ever since and haven't had a problem until after the swap.


Starter? Ignition switch? Relay?

Input greatly appreciated.

did you check to see if your getting voltage to the starter? sometimes if you tap on the back of the starter while turning the key itll let loose and work but youll need to replace it soon. if youre not getting voltage to it then you know youve got an issue with the ignition switch or a wireing issue.

No voltage, I will try replacing the ignition switch and see if the problem reoccurs.
