Double check the starter connections,if the cable is loose it wont start,try and turn the engine over by hand,meaning use a socket to turn it over.Is the starter you installed a new starter or used,if its used it too can be bad.

Check the fuses first - 120amp main (if other things work this is most likely ok)
40amp B2, 40a b1. also a 15amp fuse in the joint box. If OK then proceed, if not replace.

There are four things ahead of the starter. First check the output of the ignition switch as you try and start. You should get voltage on the black/blue and black/white wires. If not then the Starter cut relay will not operate. The relay is controlled by the CPU as well.

The start cut relay should operate, check its output which is the blue/white wire. If no output then its either the relay, a connection or the cpu signal.

If the start cut relay is working ok then your car should have voltage at the starter since you shorted out the clutch lockout switch. Go and check for voltage at the starter. No voltage most likely a bad connection. If there is voltage but it doesnt crank its the solinoid contact.

You can find the wiring for all this on page z-24 and the location of the parts on the next page Z25.
