ignition help

I have a 94 camry 5sfe that is having starting problems. The main problem is that at first the starter would engage most of the time, now nothing. Checked solenoid, is good. All lights on the dash are good, but no turn over. I am sure it is between the ignition switch, neutral safety, and the starter relay. Can anyone tell me which wires to check on these, and their respective colors. That would be most helpful.

Any help would be helpful.

Thanks

The starter relay is known to fail at this age.

It's pretty easy to remove and inspect -- do a search. You can clean the pitted contacts to get it working temporarily, or replace the the copper pieces for about $20 to get a long term fix.

If it's the starter solenoid contacts they're cheap, see this DIY:
