Well, if you fixed the wires and it worked for a few days it's probably the same thing wrong now but in a different part of the wire. It stretches and pulls apart at the trunk hinge so it, more then likely, pulled farther down the wire and split. Follow the wire and check every inch of it.

Yes it's supposed to start in neutral. Now, if it starts in gear then ya got problems with the neutral safety switch. Recheck everything you did when you put the tranny in. Did this happen with the old tranny? If not then it's something you did with the install.
