Look around the chassis battery for a large wire that goes to the Ford starter relay on the fire wall. Fords have a different starting system then my Chev chassis. Fords have a starter relay and some have a starter solenoid as well.
My rig has large power cable to the starter solenoid mounted on it. Fords wire through a starter relay. My starter power does not go through the disconnect.
Make sure your chassis battery has good ground.
Locate starter relay. Verify that there is 12 volts from the battery.
When energizing the aux start, the starter power goes through the relay in the battery control center. This provides a separate path to get to starter relay.
