Having two issues, hope someone can help...
First, won't start. Everything is plugged in, battery is charged, has power at the ECM, alternator, starter, etc. It does nothing when I turn the key to the start position. The fuel pump runs and everything else electrical in the truck works.
Second, my shift cable will not seat in the bracket. It's over an inch away from locking into the bracket on the rear of the transmission. The bracket is the one that came with the 80E from the donor vehicle.

I've seen that quite a few times actually, including once on my own truck. Those connectors are glued from the factory, a heat gun makes them come apart easily.
Check for broken wires inside the insulation, it happens often. There should be enough wire there to repin it if needed. The dealer usually keeps those pins in stock.
