I'm having similar symptoms at the moment. I'm also suspecting it's something with the unloader relay, which is what the extra wire is on the starter. Your starter looks wired fine.
Oh and if it helps you can roll up the windows with a 4mm Allen key.

Unfortunately it didn't solve my issue. And I could live with the windows and whatnot being in operable for the time being, but my electric cooling fan won't kick on.
What's the easiest way to wire my electric fan up temporarily so I can drive my car without overheating it until I sorry it out?

Yeah that's what I ended up doing. I wired and in-line fuse and a toggle switch so I can drive it atleast now. I checked the K5 and K7 relays, checked for blown fuses. Then I checked the unloader wire that goes to the starter.
My case may be a bit different since I just got done doing an engine swap.
I think I have something hinky going on with the wiring in the dash. I had to wire a bypass to the starter to get it to work. I didn't change or do anything with the wiring inside the car, but it does have the scars from a PO's attempt at putting in keyless entry/alarm/starter? or something under the dash. My windows and everything was working fine, then I decided I wanted the rest of the windows down, so I pushed multiple down buttons at the same time then halfway down, everything just stopped.
I haven't heard anything about the reverse light causing issues but I'll look into it I guess.1987 325 w/ M52b28 - Bronzit
