Hi,
The first things to check are fuses and the power supply relay. See pics 1 and 2 below. Pic 3 is for location of the relay box and pic 4 shows terminal 50 power relay.
As far as fuse 2, it is in the vehicle on the left side under the instrument panel.
If you check these things and they test good, then I need you to check if it will start in neutral. If it still doesn't, we need to check the starter itself. Here is a link that explains how it is done. If needed, follow this and let me know the results.

Let me know what you find or if you have other questions.
Take care,
Joe

Thank you sir, everything that you mentioned was checked. it did have a bad relay, but it turned out to be the starter that was bad. Replaced the starter and it started right up. Thank you very much for your timely reply and your expertise. You helped out more than you know. thanks again.
