why change the starter if it cranks by jumping the solenoid that says the starter is good you should check the safety neutural switch or the relay or the ignition switch

I tried a new relay but that did not fix my problem.So is there anyway that I can check the neutural switch and the ignition swith to see if they are good without replacing them with new ones
