2.2 A/T park switch jump

I have a 2000 2.2 with a bad auto trans that is removed from the truck. I want to sell the truck and show the engine runs good but it won't crank because of the Park/Neutral switch not getting made. I have the 2 connectors at the switch on the side of the the trans and I think it's the 6 pin connector I need to work with. What wires do I ground or jumper to get it to crank and run?

I would just jump 12 volts to starter solenoid small wire.
Most of the time I tap into purple starter wire on top of engine.

Thanks MT, can I leave the 12 volts hooked up and use the key as normal?

never mind, I thought about it and realized this was just for cranking. It worked good, thanks MT

You are welcome and thanks for posting back how it went.

I spoke too soon. I started it 3, maybe 4 times. I used a lead from the small starter terminal to the battery positive. Each time I started it, if I didn't catch it on light off and keep it going for a couple seconds, it would die and I would have to re-cycle the key to prime the pump again. Now it won't stay running at all after the initial light off no matter what. It's like if I hold the lead on the battery it would keep going but that's keeping the starter engaged so I can't do that. Could I have blown a fuse? Is it the pump that's not running once it gets going. I ran for several minutes before this for 3 or 4 times.

Check all fuses and ign power.
Does it have the key on 2 second fuel pump prime up?

Yes it has the FP prime up and that's about how much of a start I get. A short light-off and depending how much throttle I have input, how high it revs then immediatly quits. I have to turn the key off and back on to get it to light off again, otherwise it just cranks over. So, I have ignition and temporary fuel. What kept the fuel pump running when I first did this? I didn't question it before but now I'm wondering.

Check fuel pump fuse and relay.
