Intermittent crank

On this Nissan sometimes it will fire right up 60 times in a row and other times you hit the key and just get clicks through some testing I figured out the starter solenoid isn't always getting power all the relays are operational I can't find a break in any wires I have checked everything in the circuit it all works properly I have also cleaned the 2 grounds I have found one on the block and one on the frame please help thank you

There is also a switch to prefend starting when in forward or backwards.
Mostly on top of the gearbox, if to much resistance the starter will not work.

Have you checked the blue relay inside the front dash cover? I had the same problem and found the relay was going bad.
