well i been having problems starting my truck 1988 f150 302 automatic c6 transmission, been starting with screwdriver across starter solenoid.

decided to try reading codes by jumping it, im not sure if i caught it right or not cus i saw it as 22, 12, 2, if anyone could help me that'd be awesome, i also have a neutral safety switch ordered from oreillys to install tomorrow, all other starting components are new or check out ok*battery and alt good*

EEC-IV code readers are pretty cheap so I stopped trying to count the flashing light a while ago.
Have you tried starting the truck in neutral or in other gears? Does it start or not? Have you tried jumping the switch? Just curious how you came up with a faulty NSS and not the starter solenoid or the trans linkage or ignition switch being out of adjustment.
