Make sure the spade connector is properly connected to the starter motor. Easy to overlook.

just remembered in old car the wiring had this little button one wire came off the button during wiring transfer I'm pretty sure the wire that broke off the button went to the bodies earth. In the old car you had to turn the ignition on then turn the key as if starting then hit that button, the starter would not turn unless button was pushed in. I think the problem is here
