Move the shifter back and forth a 1/2 inch or so while turning the key.
It can easily be bypassed. Just remove the 2 wires from the Neutral saftey switch and connect them together.

go to starter solenoid and jump it. if it cranks, then there is a problem upstream. if no crank, start with engine end. battery first, then alla grounds, then solenoids...

You are on the right track. My baja did the same thing last weekend. I poked my head under the controls and one wire magically was off the switch. Plugged it back in and I was in business.
