No start, no crank

Please help. I am trying to get my son's 93 F150, 5.8 going again. There was a problem with parasitic battery drain and was fixed. The truck ran fine for a while but now it will not crank.

Symptoms - turn ignition key, fuel relay operates but no crank. Re-positioned the gear shift lever, attempted to start in Neutral...no good.

New battery (charged), new solenoid (works properly), new starter, new ignition switch. I checked all of the fuses I am aware of (under hood, under dash).

The wire (Red/Blue) going to the S Pin on the solenoid is not receiving 12v when key is turned to start position. When S-Pin is fed with a jumper the truck starts. The Red/Blue wire was traced to the ignition switch and was found to be continuous from the connection to the solenoid.

I honestly don't know where else to check. I have read the various posts and found some great info but nothing to help me from here.

Thank you in advance.

Check your grounds. Make sure they're clean and connections are tight.
