Checked all fuses and they are good. Hooked jumper cables up, turn key and nothing. All lights work. Just shut off while driving
Have you checked the major fuses ?
Do you have power from the key switch down to the starter ?
I checked all the fuses in the fuse box under the dash. All was good. Just shut totally off while driving. All lights work and battery is good. Turn the key and nothing. Not even a click...
So what about testing the circuit between the key switch and the starter ? And do you have power going to the key switch ?
I haven't checked that yet. How do I test that? Would it have something to do with the neutral safety switch? It has a 5 speed manuel and I tried to roll start it with no success....
You should have a main fuse that powers the key switch. Usually a large red wire. If the key switch has power, the start circuit would go thru a clutch switch to prevent you from cranking the engine in gear. But it would not keep the engine from starting if you push start it.
Do you know where this main fuse is located on this truck? I just bought this truck a couple weeks ago and I'm not familiar with it yet...
The wiring diagrams I have do not show the power circuit to the key switch. There should be 2 or 3 fuseable links coming from the battery and going to the starter and key switch you would need to check with a meter. There is also a starter relay in the engine compartment that could have failed. My suggestion would be to pull the key switch and check the circuits there then work your way back to the battery and starter.
Ok thanks, I'll check into that.
Ok, I put a new ignition switch and harness in the truck and the dash lights came on for about 5 seconds but when I turned the key to start...nothing! The dash idiot lights will not come back on. I checked all the fuses under dash, the fusible links and that and the battery is all good.

Put the key in ignition and leave in the on position for 20 minutes and it should start after that. I had the same problem with a 99 chev silverado an it worked for that. Hope it get you going. Thanks.Bear001

sounds to me that you have an igniton problem not a starter problem and or if you have or had an alarm system could be cause if u do give me feedback and i will explain but seems that your starter is fine from what u say but if you think in terms of the elemts to start a vehicle batery gives pwoer to ignition which sends to starter which gives spark etc i would check you ignition system something is causeing a short and not alowing starter to function

Hi
It could be your neutral safety switch. It could be the starter relay which is located in the fuse panel box. It could be the smaller wire going to the starter could be loose or corroded.
