2 pin connector in first pic looks like it's for a flasher which would not be causing your problem. Not sure what the other connector is for though.

Does it make any attempt (noise/click) to start? I would start by testing battery. After battery test good, if it attempts to start follow video in post #5. If no attempt to start, (with helper/ during cranking) check for 12v on purple wire on starter (with purple wire disconnected from starter). If purple wire has 12v move on (with it reconnected) to video.
