I just replaced the engine and trans in my car, it won't turn over by key, but starts when I jump it at the relay. I replaced the relay and same thing. Anyone out there in Chargerland able to post a wiring diagram? or even E-mail it to me at     cingel_me_out@yahoo.com       Thanks  ussdodge

Assuming it's an automatic trans did you check the wiring, connection to, and the neutral safety switch at the trans?

to start with, get a test light or volt meter and pull the signal wire off the relay and see if you have power at the plug when you turn the key.
Remember the average response time to a 911 call is over 4 minutes.

The average response time of a 357 magnum is 1400 FPS.

For a test you can bypass neutral safety switch and see if it starts by the key.But be carefull it will then start in any gearThe angled terminal on the relay with yellow wire should have power with key.The non angled terminal gets a wire from it to ground.To bypass the safety switch
