Thanks! I'm having a slight problem where the truck won't start, no noise at all when turning the key(Like that if you tried to start the car in drive). If I push the gear handle back a bit to P I can get it to start. Does this sound like a switch problem or something else?

Might be just an adjustment of the switch.
How do the back up lamps work in REVERSE or the starter while in Neutral? If they're both a bit off in the same direction as in PARK, the switch probably needs adjusting.

when I did my transmission I lined up the little "line" that you are supposed to do and put it on. Would not start. Made some clicks in the dash, but no start. I ended up having someone sit in the truck with the key in the "start" position while I fiddled with it. It eventually started and I tightened it down there and its worked fine ever since.
