My starter will not work in the start position but i do hear the fuel pump turning on. I replaced the power cable going to the starter, replaced the starter, battery and aternator got checked and are good. When i push start it, it will run. what is causing my starter to not come on?:mad:
 
Try replacing (or jumpering out) the starter relay. Note that it is normally closed and usually stays that way - it only activates (opens) to disable the starter (clutch pressed or theft alarm).

You can also try unplugging your clutch pedal switch (to prevent starter relay from opening).
