Brake light switch triggers the brake lights, the starter and the shifter interlock.
Also check to ensure that the little stopper is still present where the brake light switch touches the pedal assembly. Those are known to fall out and cause issues.

So I did this, I installed the brake switch in the harness, but I did not install it into the bracket on the pedal. Still did not start, I guess the good news is that means it is more likely that the brake switch is the culprit. Thanks for the diagram!
