Default update on truck is dead

I took the starter off and had it checked and it is fine. Replaced starter relay. Still won't turn over. Shouldn't I have 12 volts to the relay all the time? I get 12 volts when the key is turned to the start position. If I run a jumper to the one turminal on the relay and then put the relay in with the wire hooked up I can get in the truck and it starts fine. I seems like I lost my 12 volts that continously feeds the starter relay. Anyone ever had this happen? I'm going to pull the relay panel loose so I can trace the wires on the relay and see where I'm looing power.

Hey Coyropin you were right. That fuse is one of those square 20 anp ones. It was in a spot that said spare. I changed it and all is ok. Thanks for the help.
