I think I know where you're coming from.... once I had my parking brake on, and shifter was in nuetral, or drive, I forget, something other than Park, and got no crank. It was puzzled and dreaded the thought until I finally observed I was not in Park, put it there and away we go.

Are you suggesting a possibility that a faulty interlock switch on shifter is preventing juice to the starter circuit??
