Default Starter Problem just exchanged nothing!!! D16Z6

After normal driving yesterday I turn off my car to get some food...Come back outside and get ready to go . I try to crank no noise from the starter nothing... So i didnt wanna pop my hood in front of the hang out so i just tell friends to push start it and boom good to go... I drive off to a autozone to pop my hood and check if maybe ground wire fell or something. Ground wire is on good again i turned it off tried again nothing. Today I banged on the starter to see if it was going bad ...Nothing again..So i had a spare starter tried it out in auto parts test came out good switched starters now im back to where i was at yesterday nothing... I checked the ground on the starter its nice and tight both terminals on battery nice and tight...Battery is fully charged. The car will only start if i Push start it ...Check the 7.5 Starter Signal came out good anything else i need to check???

Sounds like you are missing your main 12v power to the starter

can you elaborate on what you are saying? The battery to starter wire is connected and is making contact (found out the hard way) so what else can I look at???

Well if you have a good ground the main 12 v power and the starter signal all there when you turn the key. the only thing left is a bad starter or you are missing one of the first 3 items.
