Ignition switch Electrical Problem

Hello All,
I am working on a 1984 3.2 Carrara Row M491

So I installed a new turn signal switch. In the process I fried the red wire going from the ignition switch to the head light switch (no big deal) I made the repair and in the process removed the back of the plug that goes into the ignition switch. I have followed the instructions as best I can and now I have a very odd issue. When I turn the key to the on (Acc.) position the engine begins to crank, if I turn the key to the start position the engine starts but the starter keeps cranking. I've definitely got something in the wrong place.

I have been following the diagram below, I have tried switching the two red wires a the top (30), I have also tried moving the Red\Black between the two (15) slots. Could someone walk me through which key wires I need to have in place to just get the car to start and run. I have the Bentley manual, but electronics are not my strength.

Thanks in advance for your assistances.
