Automatic? If so, there’s likely an interlock attached to the transmission stick that disables starting other than in the park and neutral position.  
If you know how to use a multimeter or test light, put the light on the starter’s thick wire. That wire should always be hot. It should be connected directly to the battery.  
Then check the thinner wire to the starter. That wire should only be hot when you hit the ‘start’ position.  
Not sure about an S10 but it may have a starter relay that’s not activating.
