does it have power when the key is turned to the start position? and if not, does the ignition switch have power? if yes, youll need a new ignition switch, if no, keep moving down the line.

To check if its ignition switch, take a wire with bare ends and connect some of the wire outputs on the opposite side of where the key goes in, vitually you are hot wiring to see if it starts, but if still no go i'm gonna guess either a bad connection somewhere or bad relay.

I didn't see any post about how you solved the problem. My Nissan is doing the same exact thing. Would you mind telling me how you fixed your problem? My "starter signal" fuse isn't getting power, either. It's a 7.5 amp fuse, and it's good. Motor cranks, have spark. Just put a different fuel pump in the tank and checked for voltage drop from the battery to the fuel pump....didn't show any drop on the multitester. Thanks
