Hot ballast resistor and smokin. no start at all when turning key

Make sure its in neutral or park and the netural switch is ok if auto its the middle wire then if all checks. take a screwdriver and touch the two wires together on the starter and see if it turns over. Important first block the wheels and make sure its not in gear so you dont get run over if it turns over
No power on the starter relay when touching it with a screw driver.it won't turn over
