    the starter was tested when I bought it. The truck would crank. This problem started off happening once or twice a month then with in the last week is when it fully stopped working.

Try another starter and also try turning the crank bolt with a ratchet and socket to make sure that the crank isn't frozen in place. Do not leave the keys in the car when doing so. You don't want anyone messing around in the truck when trying that!

2000 gmc sonoma wont start all the time has new starter and key switch

If the engine will not crank, you'll need to know if you have power at the starter posts. It could be the neutral switch or the starter relay.

How to voltage drop test starter motor circuit First off you need to know how the system works , all componets in the circuit . How to find a wiring diagram , how to use a volt meter . And in a lot of caes the ignition switch is a input to a control module , BCM - body control module ,PCM - powertrain control module etc...
Starter Voltage Drop

I have a 1993 gmc sonoma, put a new ecm in it but it willn't tern over,lights will com on tho an if i cros the starter the plugs wont fiyer

The problem is in the start circuit if the starter won't engage from the key. From battery to ignition switch to neutral park safety switch to starter relay to starter solenoid to starter to ground and back to battery-lights come on so switch is good, next check the neutral safety switch for power in and power out.
Once you get the start circuit working so starter engages from the key, then you can address the ignition circuit for possible no spark.

2001 GMC Jimmy with a 4.3L V6 auto trans. Will not turn over

The starter relay may have a bad connection, this is where your battery connects, and a power wire runs to the starter, also these have a ignition wire which is approx 14-16 gauge wire. The relay could be cracked or the contacts inside are going bad. But the other is the neutral safety switch that you mention. I would check these first.

2001 GMC Sonoma Ext cab 4.3l, quit while running

Pull plug wire and install a philips screwdriver into the plug wire get it 1/4 inch away from a good ground and crank the engine over, is there spark? if so check that you have fuel pressure buy renting a fuel pressure test kit from schucks or auto zone and turn the Key to run position with the gage hooked up, it should read 50 PSI turn key off and wait 20 seconds should still have 20 PSI of fuel pressure, if no fuel pressure check fuel pump relay, then check fuse to pump. if you have a bad relay and are not getting fuel then check the oil pressure switch to see if you have oil pressure at the switch if no pressure then the oil pressure safety switch has died and needs to be replaced and should stark after replacing. If you have fuel then check the timing to see if you slipped timing belt.
