2001 Thomas Starting Issues

Good Afternoon Everyone,
Like many people before me, I am having issues starting my 2001 Thomas MVP ER with a 3126 Cat. Before I am told to go read all the Vanlock stuff, know that I already have and it i's all removed. I can start the bus from the rear with no issues. I am not the first owner since the county so my situation may be a little more troublesome. I have attached a video to help describe what is happening. When I turn the key, I can hear clicking from the relay's in the cab from panel 4. I have also tried to jump out the starter and ignition from the key switch with no avail. Any help that will get the bus started with the key that wont drain the battery would be awesome. All help is welcome!

Update: Gave up trying to find the relay for all the emergency exits, and just ran a wire from the "ST" post on the key switch to the top post of the push button in the rear vehicle electrical center, bus started right up. Thanks for looking.
