Default Non-Start in Swapped Ti, intermittently

Scenario 2:
Position 2 - cluster is lit normally with the usual warning lights, etc.
Position 3 – nothing, no sound, no results.

This is the Scenario that I face intermittently, seem to be slightly related to battery power, as it will start with a sufficiently powerful jump or always bump starts. Then it will start reliability 15 to 20 or more times in a row. If I start the car and move it a few times, draining partially the Miata battery in the trunk, I will get a Scenario 2.

This is a 6/96 Ti with a 7/96 S52 swap. Since it will start many times in a row, with either key, I suspect it is not a problem with the key. Buy what?

Anybody got an ideas about this situation?

TIA
