    I can't remember if the 91 has fusible links, but if it does, they are green or orange looking wires with rubberized connectors on both ends that come off the starter relay located on the fender by the battery

    Ok, no it definitely doesn't have them then. I was picturing a fusable link to be more like an inline fuse. Well, ....any ideas on what it could possibly be with the info I've given? This one has seriously got me. Thank you by the way. I know this post is a good 5 yrs old and wasn't sure if I'd hear anything. TY

    OK let me get some more info. Does the starter function. If it does, then you can get the engine to run?

    Yes the starter functions. I was using a screwdriver across the terminals on the solenoid until I got a push button remote start under the hood. Yeah, it does function though.

    First thing to check then is the starter relay in the power distribution center. You can swap in the AC relay to see if it is just a bad relay

    I've done that with several different relays just to rule out the coincidence that the first might be bad

    The next thing to do then is verify power to the relay at the number 30 terminal and the relay coil when the key is in start.
