Do the gauges and warning lights work with key on? If not, check fusible links, AM1 for ignition key power. If the gauges/warning lights work, the key switch has power, so you can follow it to the starter solenoid. The start wire out of the ignition switch is a black/white wire, this is the hot wire to the solenoid, and only has power when key is held in start. With automatics, there is only one switch-a neutral start switch- between the ignition switch and the solenoid on the starter .

With a manual transmission, the black-white start wire goes to both a starter relay and a clutch start switch (on the clutch pedal), those two work together to send the power on to the starter solenoid. So, no crank, good battery, power to key, follow the black/white wire, the start relay and the clutch switch, to the starter solenoid- a hot wire there turns the starter motor on.

2003 Pontiac Montana starter solenoid or relay location?

What exactly does it do when you turn the Key? Are there any dashboard lights staying on that normally go out when you turn the key to position 2?
Does it do absolutely 'Nothing' with the dash lights staying on? Does it do nothing but the dash lights go off?
Dash lights go off and you get a 'Clunk' noise?
Absolutely nothing suggests security system or the actual ignition key/barrel. This often has a light on the dash shaped like a key. Nothing but the lights go off could be the starter solenoid. Lights of and a 'clunk' could possibly be the starter itself.
The solenoid will be bolted directly to the starter motor. It's the smaller barrel shaped section on the side of the actual starter motor.

If you still need it, here 'ya go:

http://66.39.50.3/Nissan-87-PU-Electrica...

Is this one of the greatest vehicles of all time or what? Well over 300,000 miles and still have 175 lbs. compression all 4 cylinders - not 1 lb difference and 28-30 MPG to boot. That's why they stopped making the Z24i :).

1992 chevy pu. 4 wheel drive electrical issue.

the ignition electrical switch (not the key ignition switch) on the bottom of the steering colomn is probably the issue........You can find it by looking under the dash while turning the key you will see a rod moving back and forth. At the bottom of the rod is the switch.
Hope this helps!
