not starting

["Kerry Pinkerton" <pinkertonk@xxxxxxxxx>]

MAKE SURE YOU ARE IN PARK when you short the relay.  I had one start once in gear.  Was an ugly, ugly thing with fortunately no injurys other than some bent metal.  Local guy was working on his sister-in-laws car.  His wife came out to watch and was standing in front of the car.  It started in gear and crushed her to death before he could get in the car to put it in reverse.

That sounds like the neutral safety switch has gone bad. You can rule out the starter by jumping the terminals on the starter relay. If it cranks, its not the starter. It could also be the starter relay.
