SOURCE: 1981 Corvette will not start

The neutral safety switch is located in the shifter housing.

Here is a link to a good article on this topic, that would beat an explanation from me.

Yes, it sounds like the NSS is the culprit.

SOURCE: RE: 1993 Dodge Dakota - truck won't start,

From your description, the solenoid is defective. The key (start) circuit provides power to the small terminal on the solenoid. With the key off, try shorting the small terminal of the solenoid to the large terminal that has the heavy battery cable attached. If no action, short the small terminal to the solenoid mounting bolt. One of these two actions should operate the solenoid. If nothing, the solenoid coil is open--replace the solenoid. Make sure the frame-to-engine ground-strap is intact and connected tightly on both ends.

SOURCE: 2004 F-250, 5.4l gas. Won't start or even crank.

are you referring to the starter relay on the firewall? the voltage should drop to 0 when measuring across the signal path because the connection is made, essentially making it a piece of wire and there is no difference in potential between the two points. is there 12v to the starter motor? is the starter solenoid (located on the starter) receiving 12v? check fuses and fusible links. disconnect hot leads from the starter. remove the starter, and supply 12v directly to the motor. does the pinon gear extend and spin? starter.

Sounds like there's a grounded wire somewhere between the ignition switch and the solenoid. When you bypass the switch with the screwdriver you don't ground out the line, but with the switch the ground shorts the circuit, blows the fuse, and then won't start the engine.

My 1987 f250 ford diesel wont crank just clicks like 20 times then when you turn key over only clicks

Check your battery terminals to make sure they are not corroded make sure your wires are not corroded also. That would be the first place I look. You can check the wires by testing the resistance with a ohm meter.

1982 ford 250 not starting

You can check for power at the starter solenoid mounted on the fender, it has power from battery pos. terminal and it will have a wire from the ignition switch the goes to 12volts when in the crank posistion, you can check with a test light and have some one turn key, if you have power to both as discribed than it is most likely the solenoid, if the solenoid clicks when you test it you will need to check for power at the other large wire from the solenoid while the key is in crank position, if power there you will need to check for power at the starter(large wire) while in the crank position, if power there then you will need a starter or you have a bad ground.
Good luck

95 jeep cherokee country 6 cyl auto. wont crank all the time

Bad solenoid i would guess. Not making a connection there. Any basic wiring and ignition switch problems should be alleviated by jumping the starter with a screwdriver. I would check the solenoid and starter brushes
