Default Starter No Power???

Ok i juss relocated battery to the trunk using a distribution block with 4gage wire running back, starter was working fine then it blew the fuse in the distro block i replaced fuse and checked all other fuses and no power to the starter now. the main harness is getting power but not the starter. took starter and battery to parts house all checked out good. i am stumped the starter power and ground both are good. Is there a starter relay or anything?? any help would be great trying to get this thing running before thursday. MR. Speaker or any other elder any advice?

Are you getting spark??

Ps. When i did my relocation my problem consisted of a polarity issue and when i went to ground it, it threw sparks..luckily i didn't fry myself

i know it is not the clutch interlock relay bc it is a 88 crx so anyones else? it was working fine before it blew the fuse in the distrobution block. now with new fuse the starter wont do nothing. but i still have all other lights, horn, radio, cig lighter so..

how would i go about that??? when i took it to the parts store they bench tested it and it was working fine. but when i bolt it up and plug everything up it wont even click or ne thing. i have a snug fit with the female connector and a snug fit with the 12volt power. it is grounded good to the tranny also.

get a test light and test the female connector if theres power when you try to start it...if no power...then check for fuses...there should be a starter fuse or relay
