I'll get out the shop manuals this weekend and delve deeper, but you can start by looking at those two things.
The clutch switch is easy enough to check with a DVM. The transponder coil is around the ignition and since you were in that area, it might be the more likely culprit (wires got unplugged, pinched or the coil moved and now is not communicating with the pill in the key head).
Thank you Particlewave...I found out that the start lock relay was jumped and I accidentally opened that wire. Put the jumper back and it run. The ignition switch worked well and now starts very smoothly. Thank you. Now to the next challenges!
