No Starter - everything else works...

I am in the final stages of re-assembling my 85 Euro Mondial Qv and put power to the car this weekend and all electrical accessories work – the gauges, windows, the flashers, the power mirrors, antenna, fan, hood, trunk and glove box poppers, radio, hazards, headlights, etc.

However, when I turn the key, nothing happens. Here is the background:

• I have a new fuse board from Guido installed
  • the original fuse board had some jumper wires on the back of it and there were wires spliced into the green and tan wires on the W connector (I think positions #2 and #6) which I eliminated - see here: https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/fuse-box-help-from-guido-or-other-elect-experts.663477/
  • I checked the #5 and #6 positions on W connector on the fuse board for power and I don’t think I had 12v there
• The starter (ignition) switch was untouched, however there was a wire spliced into one of the connectors which I eliminated
• I installed a new Anderson Power PP120 Powerpole connector in the engine bay where the positive battery cable connects to the cable for the starter
• There is a Bosch starter relay which I did not change or test but I tested for 12v on it and couldn’t get a reading
• The starter was rebuilt by a very good shop but I didn’t test it off the car…

What are the right steps to diagnose this?

Start at the back and try to hot wire the starter?

Start at the front and try to override the ignition switch?

Remove the relay all together??

Appreciate everyone's help with this as it’s the next big step to try to get the car on the road for the summer. Thank - Joe

 

this is my ignition switch:

Thanks Mike - Does the key need to be in the "start" position or just the first turn of the key in the ignition?

 

Thanks - helpful and consistent with what I was thinking - Headed to my garage after work to mess around with it

 

...and I have good wiring diagrams. Bought from afterburner - he takes the Ferrari drawings and re-creates them in color with good annotations. Thanks again - Joe

 

Ha. I literally just finished tweaking the Anderson connector and it now works as it should. Thank you
