But then it hit me! The ACC position on this old truck is found by rotating the key BACKWARDS, not halfway forward like every other vehicle I've owned in the past 15 years (including my 2003 Chevy Trailblazer - not just Jap vehicles!).

If only all repairs were this easy, but I still feel like an idiot!
