Similar fix to David's here...
Chased this intermittent issue for years.... problem isolated to either the 11 wire plug in the Engine compartment or the actual harness that runs on top of the engine to the solenoid. I ran a new yellow wire from ignition switch directly to solenoid...increased its size to 10 GA. using high temp GXL automotive grade wire and ran through tunnel.
On my switch one yellow wire sends 12v to the solenoid. Although its the only function for this wire it has a few connections via the engine compartment connection plug before getting to the solenoid. The original wire is still in the system....just disconnected and capped at the switch and solenoid.
Good luck

We disconnected the yellow wire on both sides and added a new wire and welded it on both sides. This was a much cheaper way then replacing the whole 11 wires strand.
