What terminal pairs lacked proper continuity? I would have expected lack of continuity between the battery and IG1 terminals with the key in the ON(III) position. I would have also expected the presence of continuity for some pairs with the key in the ON(0) position.

There are different circuits in the switch for different functions. So it is possible to have one that will operate the starter but not power up the ignition. This doesn't sound like your problem though. Do the oil and charge lights on the dash come on when you turn the key on but don't start? The oil light should also stay on at least for a short time while cranking the engine though it does not start. These lights are powered by the same circuit in the key switch that runs the ignition and the ECU.

What terminals and positions of the ignition switch failed to show continuity?
