Screwdriver trick at solenoid starts the car so I replaced ignition switch but it did not fix the problem. Not even a click when I turned the key but all the lights and fuel pump come on. The seat belt buzzer box under passenger
seat has been disconnected and the yellow wires connected to bypass it per recommendation from previous posts. Suggestions? Thanks.

Make sure your coil hasn't spun in the clamp, if you short a terminal on your tin, there is a black wire that runs to your ignition switch that is not fused and will melt out, ask me how I know. That was a pain to replace the wire, not to mention after the 3 ignition switches I replaced before I realized what I messed up.
