I have pulled the ba falcon apart to build it into a dirt race car; put in roll cage etc all the wireing harness was pulled out and labeled it is now back in. There are no seats or lights in the car. The airbags are not pluged in etc the dash board lights up on the turn of the key put will not crank. It was a running car.

You need to make sure there is power to the coil and the starter relay when you turn the key to start. If yes, make sure there is power going to the starter. And that the starter is good.
