Neutral safety switch? The one side of the relay coil is grounded through the neutral safety switch. You will still light up the test light when turning the key but the relay won't pull in.
Hmmmm, you might be onto something there. Before the steering box swap became a “right now” thing, I was in the process of pulling my 904 trans out.
So I did have the the shift cable, kick down cable, and the wire to the switch on the trans disconnected. Hooked all that back up this morning. I’ll have to check all that stuff, like make sure I had the shift lever actually in Park when I hooked the cable back up, etc
