When trying to start the car turn key in the ON position I have no dummy lights. If u jiggle key lights come on and go back out. I have changed the ignition switch and still nothing. Originally thought it was something else changed the starter new plugs and wires. All fuses and relays are good. Any ideas? Please don't tell me it's the ignition (fingers crossed) please email me back at personal info deleted

Thank you
bethany

Did you change the ignition switch or the ignition lock?

You'll have to trace the circuit but it may be a problem with the Neutral safety switch also called the position sensor.

Sure, it could be anything in the circuit. That's why a wiring diagram has to be followed to diagnose it.
