Looks like they hot wired the starter to the key, take the steering column surroung of on see if it is on the back side of the key tumbler, I had to do this to mine bc the wire got messed up to the starter and I didnt feel like tracing it down to fix it.

Mines has been wired like that for over a year with no problems, just make sure the wire isnt rubbing on anything and wraped up you will be fine.
