Current Issues:

No Crank No Start - key in start position causes click in trailer-tow relay.

No communication to PCM from OBD2.

No power to fuel pump unless relay bypassed.

Gear selector won’t release when key on/brake pressed.

Instrument cluster will not illuminate.

Turn signals not working - flashers DO work.

HVAC panel has no power.

Which one do you want to work on next? I'll need the wiring diagrams for what you choose.

Continuity setting is the first yellow one to the right of 200 ohms resistance.

Be careful with that meter "10A max unfused" means it burns/explodes if overloaded.

Yes, Thanks, I lent my good one to my brother, haven't gotten it back yet!

I will now let the dumb questions begin!

In checking the continuity of the of the ignition switch, am I to test from the switch to the CJB or where?

Switch disconnected. Testing input/output at the switch:
pin 4 to 7 in start
pin 4 to 6 in accessory and run
pin 4 to 1 in run and start

Each test should tone when the circuit path is good. Any that fails means a bad switch.

They all appear to have power as required.

Then you don't need another ignition switch. They are not supposed to have power during the test, just continuity.

The continuity test is a resistance test, under a specific threshold of resistance you will get a tone from your meter. Above the threshold you will get no tone but a measurement of resistance. This test requires the circuit being tested to be unpowered - the meter provides the power. Try running a continuity test on a high voltage circuit with power present is a recipe for disaster.

You can add a replacement wire from pin 7 at the ignition switch plug to pin 11 of the cjb plug. Cut the wire about 4-5 inches from each plug, solder and heat shrink wrap the splice. When you run the wire avoid any metal contact and zip tie in place once the connections are complete.
