it dont even turn over, so the belt is out. all other electronics work and lights DONT dim when i turn key....... idk about the starter, i dont get the one loud click liked i did on my last bad starter, it dont click at all or anything when i turn my key.... it acts like it would when tryin to start a clutch and not puttin the pedal in. but i tried disconectin the clutch switch, didnt work. i even tried pushin the switch all the way in with my finger and it didnt worked.....

Check the starter..... I just had the same issue, no click, everything else worked, lights didn't dim either when trying to start,,, checked the starter and it was dead.. checked with a backup starter I had from a hanger queen I have and it kicked right over. Check the starter.
