Curious if anyone else had this issue....

You have a mechanical problem,not electrical. Like I said before you need to check out the gearshift lock operated by the gear and rack that locks the gearshift lever when the key is turned off.

Hey Scooterwrench.... You talking about the shift linkages under the truck between drivers side and transmission ? Or something else that 'm not understanding.... This thing has been a mind numbing issue it seems....

No,problem is in the column,under the steering wheel.

Rack Switch Actuator...? I see that in the drawing and see that it's also under the steering unit inside the column on left side when sitting in the truck looking at the steering wheel....

If your truck does have the brake interlock you may check that by reaching under the brake pedal with your toe and lifting up on it.

I went out and did some more checking on the truck... Looked under the column at the bottom for anything that didn't look right.... The NSS I installed caught my attention.... Apparently when I plugged it in, I only had one terminal plugged in instead of the two prong.... I pulled the plug and corrected it... Now it seems to work just fine.... Like to thank each and everyone who posted.... Very appreciated.... Thing is, I could kick myself in the backside for a rookie move... I should of double checked the plug instead of just popping it on and walking away.....

Don't beat yourself up too badly,even us ol greybeards have had our dammit moments. Lying on your back in a floorboard doesn't make it any easier either.

LOL... I
I agree, laying in the floor boards 20 years ago wasn't bad.... But now it sucks..lol... But yup, that in my opinion was a huge dammit..lol.

I do so much dumb stuff that I actually keep track of it in a notebook, and I study that ****** when trying to fix stuff.

Yup, I don't think you can be a mechanic unless you have a couple of "dammit" moments. And you've drawn blood wrenching on a project, and dropped a few tools where a magnet on a stick was required to retrieve them.....(10mm socket, I'm talking about you LoL).
