Engine Wont turn over from ignition switch.

Starter has been tested and is good cleaned all connections,replaced starter relay.  If you jump across the relay it will start but if you turn the ignition key it doesn't do anything. This is a 440 in a 69 Charger. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Are you good at electrical??? Get a Volt/Ohm/meter (maybe from Radio Shack) and start checking, you'll need one in the future anyway on this old car.  My guess is a bad starter relay or a bad connection (covers about everything, doesn't it ?)  Anyway keep working it and good luck.

Starter relay or neutral safety switch?

I replaced the starter relay today. Will check the neutral safety switch tomorrow. Thanks

Check the yellow wire on the starter relay as well.

all you need to check is ig you get ground through brown wire on N or P, and power at START moment on yellow wire.

A bulb is enough... feed a 12 volts bulb with socket between brown wire and positive source ( it could be starter relay stud ) if bulb lights on, ground from NSS is good. If not, NSS, plug, linkage, or Tranny harness damaged. ( or you are not in P or N )

same about yellow wire... ground one end and feed the other bulb end with the yellow wire... go to ign key and try to start on with key... if bulb does not light on, then problem is on ign switch, plug, bulkhead, or somewhere on yellow wire line. that line is a direct line between ign switch and relay, doen't not go or splice anywhere.

Figured it out. Found me a nice vintage 80s Alarm system mounted up under the glove box. Unplugged it from the main box and she fired right up. Thanks for all your help

My Duster wouldn't turn over from the switch. I changed the negative battery cable and then it fired from the switch.
