Put the scanner on it, see if there are any codes. Or just see if
getting power at the starter relay in the fuse box which will indicate
if the ignition switch is sending electrons. Then jumper the relay
contacts to see if the starter spins with key in pos2. that was the
problem on the $675ML500, I could get it started by jumpering the
relay. I rigged up a pushbutton momentary switch on the relay pins to
start it before I got the new ignition switch.
I'm not entirely sure how these work being newer but I am guessing it is
probably a similar system/circuit

That could be tempting if indeed it is just the starter. I wonder
what the symptoms are. Might be just the ignition switch, was $25
part on the 05 ML
