Starter bendix engauges when shifted to forward

I'm servicing a Toyota that i replaced the electric shift lever assembly last May and now it is doing the same thing. When it's running and shifted into forward , the starter engages. It does not engage in reverse. The new lever is showing the same malfunction as before. Is there a relay or diode that may be defective?

Fact of the week
According to studies published in the English Journal of Medicine, the impact of daylight savings is revealed by a 24% increase in heart attacks on the Monday following the spring shift forward. When clocks move back in autumn, heart attacks drop by about 21%, suggesting that loss of sleep is an important driver.
