Car won't start. No crank or turn over whatsoever. Just recently replaced clutch assembly and starter assembly. Problem is intermittent. Can roll start because manual.
Try this procedure:
Check the battery like this:
Turn on the headlights, then try to start the car.
If the headlights do not dim or go out, then the battery is likely ok.
Check that the battery cable plus post, goes to the starter, Minus post to a good ground, like the engine.
If wiring is ok, then look at the starter solenoid for a good connection, and proper voltage at the starter.
Problem is most likely the Solenoid's bendix gear or starting relay, Have someone bang on the starter while you try to start the car. This usually works by dislodging the bendix gear..
Hope this helps.
There should be a clutch safety switch that prevents you from cranking the engine with the clutch engaged.
Have you checked the switch for power ?
Testimonial: "Where is it located? All the replacements was done by a local autoshop and I'm slowly losing trust in them..."
Also will I be able to check it without the key in ignition?

I don't have a shop manual for that model. It looks like the switch would be mounted on the top of the clutch pedal much like the brake light switch. The engine computer and a relay are also involved in the circuit.
