Particlewave,

No, unfortunately after replacing the switch with the new one the same results:

Connect the battery, and everything gets powered, radio, lights windows, etc., But, when you try to start the engine, you only get a clacking (mechanical) noise from the engine's area and you no longer have any power, like not even having a battery...

Until you disconnect/connect the terminal on the battery and all the electrically powered components are ok...

I already removed the starter, checked the cable connections with the exception of the one on the "splitter Y" in front of the engine (cannot find it), we tested all of the relays except one with an ohm meter that my neighbor kindly showed how to use

I am running out of options or ideas, and with the tail between the legs (broken ego)... I may have to tow it to a specialist..

Thank you all to provided suggestions, it's greatly appreciated
