Genie GTH-1056 ignition issues

Working on a GTH-1056 with the deutz engine. The issue is when you turn the ignition to the ON position, the engine will start. Once started it runs normally and the starter disengages. I have installed a new ignition and the issue still occurs. Has anyone seen this before?

    Do you know any history on the machine? Did it just start doing this? Has someone messed around with it before you got it? I would get the wiring diagram off of Genie's website and look at the start wire circuit. Something may be hooked up wrong or bad relay.
