Sorry I did not clarify. It does not work unless it is in the on position.

Key inserted=No start

Key to ACC=No Start

Key to ON=Start

I just tried it again to be sure, I had the key sense grounded as well. Does the key sense need to be unhooked from the ignition plug and then grounded? Cause all I did was tap it and then ground it. It does activate the key/headlight reminder noise this way.

If it has to be on to start, it is not a keysense problem. Since the key has to be on, it is an ignition, or lack there of problem. It could be a combination of both, but at this point we need to get it to start with the key in the switch but in the off position.

How many wires are there on the ignition switch harness? Is there a plug on that harness that you can easily access the wires so you can test with a meter without having to damage the insulation on the wires? You need to turn the key on and take voltage readings on every wire to see which ones have 12 volts.

There are 6 total wires in the ign plug. There are 2 green wires that are not being used. Both are small gauge wires like 16 awg or so.

They function like this:

Green #1

Always 12v

Green#2 (Another ign wire?)

ACC=0v

Key=12v

Crank12v

So I was very anxious to try hooking up this other green wire to the IGN 1 output on the relay and vroom vroom it started! No key sense or anything else was required.

Thanks so much for your help "i am an idiot" :) I spent so much time trying to figure this out when all I needed was this extra wire hooked up. Now it is on for the add on parts. But I will save that for another day.

The green wire is located in the corner of the ign harness.

(I think this should be noted in the xB diagrams)

The green wire would connect to ign 1 output from relay?
