Car will not start

Ford Mustang 2003 GT/4.6l 12576 miles
I was driving and all day and i cut vehicle off and when i went to start the vehicle it act like it was going to start it was like a quick vrrgh then went quiet my car is a stick manual transmission so i pop the clutch and the car started. So i figured it was the starter so i went out and purchased a new starter and put it on, and when i went to go start it same thing nothing and yes i put the starter on correctly. I check all fuses and there all good now i can't tell if relay is good or bad because the relay is all black. When I put the key in and turn the key all the lights on the dash come and everything but at that last turn i get nothing ,so I'm asking what could it be.

Ignition switch,neutral safety switch on trans or easiest is to check all the grounds.

It is the clutch switch, when u push it in, does not fully put down the safety switch, I taped two pennies on the back of mine with black tape and it has never had that issue again

Or you could reset the switch all the way back out and works perfectly again.

Same, started off cranking slow and not enough to start, checked the starter it's fine, checked the starter relay, it's good, checked ignition, good, battery, good, grounds, good, starter solenoid, good, now it doesn't even turn slow, just clicks. And I don't think it's the solenoid clicking either.

Check all your ground wires, especially the one to the starter stud bolt.

Nothing kicks on by ignition. Fuel injectors kick on when jumped, but starter does not please help? Do I need to get the ignition switch,key and pcm from the other car that I got the motor and transmission out of. ?????

My fuse box is under the steering wheel in cab

Ford Mustang 2001 Convertable 180000 miles
A fuse fell out and I'm wondering if that is to the fuel pump because cutting out and dieing was an issue but now it won't start at all. I can't find which fuse is fuel pump because you don't have the correct box on your diagram. Mine is under steering wheel not on passengers side
