Need some serious help. truck won't start
 
Hey guys, I need some help. Lately my truck has had a hard time starting. When I go to start it , I have nothing. I have a brand new battery, new alternator and new starter. I think it's something having to do with the ignition. The electrical connection that goes to the starter solenoid is good. The weird thing is sometimes I'll let it sit if I can't get it to start and come back to it later.... sometimes, when it does actually start, If you hold the key down for like 10 seconds it will start but it doesn't happen much. Sometimes if I climb under the truck and wiggle the starter solenoid wire it will start if it's in the right spot but its not consistent. Is there a problem at the ignition switch? could it be there gear shifter column or something around there? where should I start? thanks

it wasn't the neutral safety switch. loose wire...it was the wire from the ignition to the small fuse box in the cab.

haha i know right. thanks for the help. it sucked bc I couldn't get it to start to see if the trans would run and when i did get it to start it worked a whole day and the next day i tried to start it, it wouldn't start so I messed with it all day instead of dealing with the trans but its all good now bc I'm pretty sure its the tune

well, guess what ? The problem is back . New safety neutral switch, battery, starter, alternator. All the relays are correct and new. I checked the connections to the solenoid and starter. Any ideas?
