Default 94 Accord will not crank

My 94 Accord Ex Coupe 2.2 manual tran will not crank over. I have a new battery, new starter, new main relay, and I still can't get it to crank. At first I had buzzing and clicking under the dash on drivers side and passenger side when I tried to start. The new relay took care of that. I can only get the car to run when I compression start it. When i'm driving and I turn on the brights the the speedometer and tach drop then go back to where they were. When I push the brake when driving the brights cut then go bright. Almost like a blink. I checked and cleaned the battery and starter ground wires but don't know what else I can do. I do get a clicking when I try to start. Help please

The MT has a starter signal relay. Have you checked that relay? You can check the relay by checking for a 12V signal to the starter solenoid wire (blk/wht wire). If no signal, the starter relay fault is likely.

Starter cut relay appears to be near shifter, under the console but may be under dash. Not clear in shop manual.

good luck

This is a stupid question but what is MT as it is referenced in your comments?I will check that in the morning, thank you. I was just trying to start it and it would click at the starter then buzz like it was shorting out under the drivers dash. It was not the main relay but it was a different relay I'm sure. I guess it could also be the ignition switch but I changed that less than a year ago.
Thank you for the info.
