 Digital Transmission Range Sensor, it's that black switch looking thing on the trans that has an electrical connection AND the lever actuated by the shift cable. I see in the wiring diagram it is just labeled DTR I've always included the S for sensor, I have seen it somewhere written as that.

It is the only switch between the start switch and the relay. The relay for the relay could be bad too LOL it is in the power distribution fuse box. The ignition switch itself couldn't put the amperage needed to activate the huge relay coil on the starter, so they use it to activate a relay with beefier contacts.

So there is starter switch (in steering column) goes to:

Relay in the main fuse box (power distribution box) goes to:

the solenoid on the starter.
