Default Del sol wont start, has fuel.

My del sol wont start, i tried replacing the ignition switch, no change, i can jump the starter solenoid connection and the car starts fine, so it isnt the starter. what can i check between the ignition switch and the starter? is there a starter relay? where can i find it?

fresh swap? daily driver that has always worked fine?

main relay would be my guess for a car that's always worked till now, but it could be a lot of things if it's a fresh swap.

correct me if i'm wrong, but i thought the main relay mainly dealt with the fuel pump, does it actualy affect the starter signal?

the main relay is actually two relays, one controls the fuel pump the other throws power to the ECU, injectors and a few sensors.

Check the main relay after you check for power at the starter cut relay.
I have not heard of a lot of starter cut relays going bad, but main relays I hear of a lot.
