no crank no start.... after it was running

little background, the car is swapped with an LS1 and uses the PEZ harness.

yesterday i stopped to get gas, and after i filled got in, nothing. had to push the car into a parking spot the battery is fine, the starter is good, i swapped it for a new one in the parking lot.

i eventually had to jump the starter connecting the hot to the ground to get it started and home so its a relay somewhere im guessing. thing is, i have no idea what or where to look right now, ive replaced all fuses in the front harness relay box but one, picking that one up today.

my clutch neutral switched was jumped when i got the car, i took a quick look and they must of tucked that wire up somewhere so i need to find that and make sure the jump didn't disconnect.

other then that... any ideas? really need get this thing running.

thanks

Clutch switch. The one closest to the firewall is for the starter.

don't just put larger fuses in to repair a problem. if the original fuse is 20a, you don't want to just slap in a 30a and expect it to solve a problem, that's how wires melt and then you have a larger problem. granted, fuses just get old and break, but if you put in the correct size in and it blew, there's a problem that you need to repair.

Okay checked the fuse, fuse is good checked with multimeter. Is there a window switch relay, what do you guys think it is? Driver and passenger both don't work at all.

For the power windows? According to my box, it says 30a if I'm not mistaken

sometimes it's the switch that generally goes bad. you can find them in the FS section often.

no worries then. I just didn't want you to create a problem for yourself. I don't have my car right now so I can't validate but I trust you can read a fuse panel.

My driver switch is indeed broken, but working with a small driver for now. Passenger switch is good, but not working either
