Mopar dies when key is released

RustyRat: Good call. This is where I was at yesterday. There is a dark Blue wire on the ignition switch that gets changed to Red in the connection on the steering column and harness and later gets connnected to the ballast resistor. That red wire gets its power from the pink wire at the Ballast resistor. This is the one that needs the power, that I am not getting. Now the pink wire is right next to the red Battery wire on the starter relay. I can jump that and restore the power. I thought for sure this was the problem, but after a new solenoid, I still have the problem.
