If you don't know when the Ignition switch was replaced, it wouldn't be a bad idea to swap a new one in.
You need to check the wire on the starter to see if it is getting 12V with the key turned.
There is a connector near the battery where you can get access to the wire easier than at the starter itself.

New version is black and improved, original are white. If it's white then it's original and simply worn out.
Whites were notorious for cracking where the spring perch is.
