Checking for starter voltage when cranking 200

Well I checked the "Service Socket" while the key was in the cranking position and the light on my test lite up so that looks good.

I also check the hot wire to the started and had juice there.

I'll try taping on the starter solenoid with a block of wood.

What I don't understand is, why doesn't the head lights light up when I turn them on. I thought the head lights would always go on either the car was running or not. They don't go on at all eventhough the battery is in good condition. Is that an indication that the ignition switch is shot?
