Yes, I was going to sat that the neutral safety switch can also cause a similar problem. If your vehicle does not know it is in park or neutral, it may not start. My Jeep was doing this for a while, but I could get it to start by switching it into neutral. I eventually changed the NSS, but be aware that they can be pretty expensive.

Check the ground to frame wire buddies Ford had same symptoms and the ground wire rotted off that it gave enough contact to read voltage but would not start. Had to crimp on a new lug and good to go

I'd guess the ground wire from the engine to the frame as well.

its incredible that even with the size of the hood on our pickups they still have no room to work on them. I had a 92 f150 you could practically sit under the hood while working on the engine. Lots of room to play in older trucks.

Have you plugged in a diagnostic tester to the truck?
With the computers cars/trucks use now this could give you an answer.
The computer could also be the problem.
Have you tried your other key? The truck may not be reading the chip on your key.

Going to go get the starter Load tested just to make sure before I put it back in. As that is a 2 hour job with almost no room to squeeze it back in and then put wires back on it.
