Need help guys.
The starter in the 318iS doesn't turn on the key. The ignition lights come on etc.
Got the starter to turn the engine by connecting it up to the battery direct, so.........
Is there a fusable link in the wiring to the ignition or anywhere else for me to check ?? Maybe a relay ??
Cheers for any help.

No fusible links.
It's not or ever has been an auto, has it?
Does it have an immobiliser that interrupts the start signal?
Look above the glove box for a single pole plug and socket in a black/yellow wire. Take apart here and apply 12 volts to the wire that goes to the left.
