I had to leave my car in a parking lot for the night and go back tomorrow and see it it'll start

the car is a 1982 300TD
Here's an electrical diagram for the starter switch. I hope the JPG doesn't get buggered up.

I realize that the proper response would be to look at the neutral safety switch, but that takes time and if this is a daily driver, then.....

I have done this before on a 80 300D. It was a daily driver and I shorted the switch out until I had time to fix it. Just for fun I put it in drive and started it, no problem.

I'll try and locate the area where the violet and violet/white wires are on another diagram.
