wont crank

By the way, forgot to mention that if you know that wire is hot, but it still won't turn the starter - I'd suspect the starter - but first make sure the ground wire for the starter isn't corroded and has a goooood connection.

If it does start that way, it could be the wire from the solenoid to the starter, the solenoid fuse, bad key switch or the solenoid itself.

Check that fuse first! Also, word of caution - if you do unhook the wire on the solenoid, be careful not to over-tighten when putting it back. They will strip in a heartbeat! I've done it! :o Good luck and let us know!
