If so, problem is the starter or solenoid, which is unlikely since you can start it by jumping the solenoid. Check continuitiy from the start terminal of the switch to the start terminal on the starter solenoid, you likely have no continuity. If that is the case, repair the connection at whichever end is broken or replace the wire. Could also be dirty or corroded at one end.

can someone explain what these wires area and where they belong? If I touch the white wire on the starter it powers the starter and rolls the engine over.
