no power goin to the starter from steering column

that suxs i goin to replace the starter relay first before that.

Please stop thinking about replacing parts, read my post above and do the simple tests as outlined. If you don't understand part of it, I'll be happy to try and reword it.

These are SIMPLE systems after you understand how they work.

The main TRICKS with Mopar after you learn them, that is different from Ferd/ GM,

The bypass circuit for the ignition is in the IGN switch, not the solenoid.

The clutch safety/ neutral safety grounds the starter relay, different from Ferd/ GM

Ferd / GM don't USE a starter relay

You probably don't need any more than a 12V test lamp and a few Radio shack clip leads to run down this problem.
