So my dumass decided to test the starter while it was still on the car. Not on the flywheel. And i guess the starter was touching metal and wen i tryed to crank the starter i saw a spark and then nothing would happen wen i turn the key. I took the starter to autozone and worked great. So now thers no power to the starter.all fuses seem good. So im not sure wat else i blew. Any help would be appreciated.

I got a toyota pickup 1985 22r

Pull that big fuse in the box under the hood just behind the battery and check it with an ohm meter.

The small fuses next to the battery are not burned, and i already tried using ither relays, but no luck. Are there other fuses or relays on the cabin i can possibly test?

start tracing wires

Check the wire coming from your battery to the underside of the fuse box in the engine bay. It might have a fusible link in it. check for 12v at the fuse box.

So thers power to the 80,40,30 amp fuses but no power to the smaller 10 and 7. 5 Fuses. Thers also powwer to the bigger relay. Wat else can i do? Is there like a fuse between the ignition switch and the fuse box by the battery?

Guys so i checked the driver kickpannel fuses and non are burn. All fuses have power with the ignition on. Maybe my ignition switch got messed up with the short? All lights on dash still light up though. And thanks for all the replies!
