The first thing I would check is to see if the wing-nuts are TIGHT at the battery. Those things wiggle free over time and still power accessories but lose the amps necessary to crank the motor. Some people throw out the wing-nuts and crank down a couple of hex-nuts.

Second, did you treat your connections with dielectric grease or equivalent when you installed the switch? Corrosion could be a problem if not.

Beyond that, I'd just check all of your grounds under the console. I had one break loose once when banging around in 3-footers last summer.
