After I jump at the box the starter engages normally a few times which indicates corrosion on an electric connection to me
To clarify if the shifter bushings are good and your NSS is not starting in park it has still failed to work as it is supposed to.

It is just that people have noted that when the NSS is not working/falied in Park it will sometimes still work in Neutral. If it starts in Neutral only you have to decide if the safety part of Neutral Safety Switch apples or not.
