So I did an engine swap. Bad 7afe for a good 7afe. The long and short is, the engine is in. Bolted up, wired up, and wont start. Ive have good grounds, I'm getting power to the relays, fans, etc. But the starter isn't doing anything. I know its hooked up, because i never disconnected it during the swap, and I never had problems with it before. WHAT IS GOING ON ?! .......HELP!

the above picture is labeled a little wrong. the small plug is actually a ground. the large plug is constant 12V straight from the battery. when you turn the key the starter relay actually completes the circuit and grounds the starter. so unless you are turning the key, the small plug on the starter is floating.
