The neutral safety switch could be shot.

I haven't looked at my expy to see if it is the same, but I just replaced the starter on my sisters 2001 supercrew w/5.4 and there is another solenoid on the starter. I think that was all that was wrong with hers but on the weekend was unable to find anyone that sold the one on the starter separately.
