My NPN switch is bad, too, and rowing didn't help past the very early onset of the problem. By the time it got very annoying (up to 3-4 times a week), the only thing that would help is time, or cooling the switch (which I did with some ice leftover in my beverage of choice).
I confirmed it with a button to jump the interlock pins (seperate from the position pins for the dash readout). No crank, flip switch, crank!. Flip again, no crank. I really meant to get the pinouts posted here but I can't find them...I'll just have to look under the hood.
I've procrastinated replacing the NPN so I can't say 100% but the test was pretty convincing. I had originally tested as far as the relay, after getting hosed replacing the starter. It does get worse and worse until you start getting rolling trans limp home as a baked swicth freaks out the TCM (and 'almost always' nocrank).
