I got in my car the other day and turned key everything lights like they should turn to start and nothing. Not even a click. Getting power to starter and apparently switch but nothing from switch to starter. Can someone maybe tell me where relay may be at?

Good evening.

I will attach the location of the relay for you to view.

Did you try to move the gear shift to neutral to see if it starts?

Did you check the battery voltage? Low voltage will cause this issue.

Yes, I tried moving shifter and still nothing. Battery tested 12.9, so pretty sure it is good. I just was not sure if one of the relays I found were the starter relay as I do not have cover with diagram. Will replace and let you know what happens. May be couple days as I am not in walking distance to parts store so have to wait on available ride.
