I stand corrected and remain in awe of your knowledge.
Although I new of that "service point" I never used it (just jumpered from battery + to starter). Upon looking at the wiring diagram I have seen my error. Sure hope I did not create work or confusion for you Oscar.

Story: Some years ago I was troubleshooting something on my 740 and used the above method forgetting that the key was on and car was in D. Well you know the rest. Fortunately being younger a more nimble I was able to chase after it, open door, jump in and mash the brakes just before it would have plowed into a neighbor's garage. I guess the service point is a better choice as the start interlock switch is still in the path.
