There are two bolts that hang down either side of the column where the 
column first meets the dash.  One bolt has a metal tab on it that causes a 
ground.  There are plastic spacers on the bolts to allow the column to 
collapse in a collision, that's why the column may not ground properly.  For 
testing however, just run a jumper wire to and from any metal surface on the 
column and the car.  You will of course need to remove the plastic covers 
from the column to do all this.

You can see those two blueish plastic spacers in this picture of the column 
after having been removed from the car.

Thank you,  I will try your suggestions and get back to you.  Where is the 
steering column grounded?  How do you check the ignition switch?  I am not 
very knowledgable on the Imperial as I have had little trouble with it. 
Thanks.
