Answer
Emerald,

Use a length of wire from the positive battery cable to the small terminal on the starter.  If the engine turns over check and see if the neutral safety switch needs to be replaced.  You did not say if it was an automatic or a manual transmission.  If a manual transmission the starter safety swtich is on the clutch pedal.  That would be the wire to bridge to allow you to start the car until you replace the switch.  If it is an automatic it is on the shifter on the transmission.  A warning, if it is a manual, be sure to have the car in neutral before you use the length of wire trick to diagnose.  You do not want the car to move suddenly and hurt you while you test out the starter.  If it is in gear the car would move.
