Default 2011 5.0 not starting

Hey everyone,
I have a 2011 5.0 and it will not want to start periodically. What I have noticed when the truck doesn't start is when I insert the key into the ignition, the P and N indicators do not light up orange. They do light up if I shift to R, D & M. I'm thinking it has to be the neutral safety switch or transmission range sensor.

Anyone have any idea what might be the issue? I've searched all over online and can't seem to find anything. I have gone through the obvious things first such as checking fuses and replacing the battery, but nothing has changed.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks again.

Yep, that sounds a lot like a neutral safety switch.
