Define "Nothing".

Does it crank but not start; or does it not crank.

Huge difference in diagnostics.
Demand compensation from Communist China for the damage done by the Virus Originating in the Wuhan Lab, released (intentionally or negligently) into the world in 2019 (VOWL-19).  Trillions of dollars, plus direct compensation to individuals for medical bills, and "wrongful death" settlements.

Definition of nothing:  no cranking, also no click, thus nothing happened mechanically.
I thought that maybe the neutral switch because how
it happened, spent a bit testing it, it was fine. So I checked
more & found that in this scenario when the neutral switch is
ok its either the circuit or solenoid. After unwrapping lots of electric tape
found a bad crimp on connector, my fault. I soldered it this time and am
soldering all my crimp connections just in case, this is Deans high strength silver solder.
Thanks for the help.....
