Before would turn the key it would take few seconds then turn over and start now turn the key and nothing no click, it will not turn over. The battery is good, connections are good, fuses good. The lights come on dash turn to start they go out until I release key. Starter or switch?

Sounds more like a bad starter. Do you have a test light to do some testing? Also, did you make sure the battery cables are clean and tight?

Your welcomed the small purple wire to the starter should have power with the key in the start position. Sometimes you can hold the key in the start position and lightly tap on the starter and sometimes the starter will start to work. That way you know you have a bad starter.
