1997 Olds 88 Royale Turn ignition switch, lights come on strong but no click from starter. Isn't there a linkage from ignition switch to bottom of steering column to make contact for starter? If so how to access it?

**No crank at all/nothing/nada when key is engage to starting position

Could be a blown fusible link, the starter, starter relay, clutch switch/park and neutral switch/transmission position switch and ignition switch assuming the battery condition and connections are good. Note:If it doesn't apply disregard.
