    Mep-003a no cranking!

    When I place the start switch to start nothing happens. I can jump the starter with no problems. Basically I have no power to the stater selnoid from the start relay. How common does this part go bad? There is power when the switch is set to start on the k1 relay at terminal A1-2 but not at A1-1.
