Hi,

What we need to do is check is the starter fuse and relay. I attached two pics below. The first is an index of fuses and the second is the under hood fuse box. I highlighted the fuse and relay to test.

As far as the relay, you can switch it with a different one in the box with the same part number or here is a link explaining how to test one.

In addition to just checking the fuse, make sure there is power to it. That can be done using a simple test light. Here are two links. One explains how to check and the other deals with using a test light.

Let me know what you find.

Take care,
