I am looking for a wiring diagram.  In particular I need the section that details the starting circuitry.  I have removed the remote starter as well as the after-market alarm system because the vehicle is not starting.  I installed the alarm a couple of years ago but not the starter.  The place that installed the starter connected the 2 starter wires (BLACK / YELLOW and BLACK/ white) together with a diode even though the starter had multiple starter wire outputs.  The vehicle will start when a jumper wire is connected to the solenoid trigger on the starter motor itself, therefore the problem is definetly electrical.  I'm thinking it might simply be a broken wire but I can't find a manual for this car.  Any help is appreciated.

Your ignition switch might be toast.  Meter the wires from it when your trying to start the car. Make sure you have voltage when, and where, you need it.

The ignition switch checks out fine.  When the key is turned 12 volts appears at the BLACK/ white wire.  This wire is supposed to feed the PNP relay.  The ground for this relay is provided when the car is in neutral or park.  What I really need is to find the location of the PNP relay so I can trace the circuit back from there to the switch and to the starter.    I'm assuming that the switch is right on the tranny.  I was hoping that someone had a schematic for the electrical system so I could avoid having to search around for the relay.   Thanks.
