The bridge side of the relay was powered from a large fuse in the fuse box. (cant recall the no.)

Thanks for the reply.
"verified starter operation by jumping starter relay. "
Thought about that but jumping the starter relay engages the starter just fine. Key on, jumper installed, starter cranks but no fire.
So, for some reason the relay/bus is not getting the signal.
Can't see why the starter not being engaged would randomly shut the engine down.
This one is being a real pisser. Trying to avoid having the van towed to the dealer just so's they can lie to me and charge me $600.00.
