The starter circuit is not normally fused. I would check the fuses, I think
it is about the third or fourth from the right are the ones that are hot off
the battery. Check the connections at the battery and the voltage regulator
under the back seat. Use a volt meter and just follow the source. Start at
the battery, and work your way towards the front of the car, making sure you
have a full 12V all the way to the ignition switch. From there, check the
voltages coming out of the ignition switch with it in the start position. If
you have 12V in, and no 12V out, it is usually the switch.
