I would try to check whether the starter's small terminal ( solenoid terminal ) gets 12V when you turn the ignition key. Changing the NSS is not difficult but access is tight. I would not go there until you have checked out the starter.
I had a NSS fail completely. Jumping NSS wires allowed the engine to start so I replaced the NSS. Should be easy to test once you have the pins outs for a 126 NSS. The NSS area in a 124 is a Japanese hotel room next to the ballroom around a 126 NSS
