almost 100% chance your starter died. they are cheap and easy to get to, so don't sweat it.

well thank you my brothers..btw i do need to check my real "IQ"

but anyways..i went ahead and tinkered about 30 mins ago and resolved my issue...i tapped my starter a good 10 times or so and clicked my kill switch off then on and realized it cranked and started!!! but before it did i do want to tell you that it made a small "HUM" noise when i clicked to igniton 2 and then when i tickered a couple more seconds it turned on..prolly the starter fried huh?/..i know its refurbished cuz it's from discount auto parts ya kno.
