I think you can probably find everything you need in this thread, including the troubleshooting procedures. It's a bit long-winded but stick with it, you'll get there in the end. Note the electronics on your parking brake/operator interlock circuit are exactly the same as the 226B that is the subect of the thread.

EDIT: You also need to be mindful of the "deliberate mistake" in the text of the troubleshooting procedure that was discovered during the process of diagnosing the problem.
