as advised before you need to check you are getting battery voltage to starter lead permanent on thick lead and when ignition switch operated on thin wire if you are check engine to body earth and battery connections you can use the jump lead as advised in other post between batt neg and good earth point on engine if no good make sure engine is free to turn jack up O/S/F wheel engage 3rd gear and turn wheel make sure engine turns over if it does remove starter and get it tested
