Default ideas for starter problem?

when i try to start my car, nothing happens, no click or anything... i can hear a small click from the relay im guessing near the ecu, but no lights dim or anything, so the starter isnt getting power, is there a fuse to check? i noticed the small wire with the plastic clip grounded out when it got pinched by the motor mount. i just put in my tranny and this is what happened, i cant try to start it till i get my turbo, so anything to check will be appreciated, i have lots of time to check things out. so tell me if theres a fuse i should check or anything! THANKS!!

LOLOL, thanks for the crankwalk help.. its connected to the battery, everything else turns on fine, radio whatever. the small wire goin to the solenoid got grounded out on an engine mount, i think that might have been the problem, but what did it screw up is what im asking!?

i checked the fuse labeled Ignition or whatever, it was fine, i wonder if it killed the solenoid or something when it grounded out that little wire. it wont hurt to take it out and take it to autozone or somethin.
