Starting Problems, Please Help.

[rommel]

Hello Everyone,
It started this morning, when i turn the key to the start position, nothing happens. It finally started after about 10 cycles of the key. I drove it to work and when I left for my lunch break, it took about 5 tries to start. The battery is fully charged. The starter does not even try to crank. On the way back to the office it started fine. Tonight it won't even crank at all. I checked the starter relay, K1, but it only had two posts. I opened the relay and it was only a jumper. Any ideas where to start troubleshooting? Am I looking at the wrong relay?

Thanks,
Rommel

Possibly your "fusible link". In a 535 I think it's located by the battery under the back seat. When the fuse is warm it expands and makes contact, when it is cold it contracts and separates.
