New wheel 23 #1 Posted March 15, 2014 I got to electrical portion of restoration. Everything hooked up. I can jump across posts on solenoid to get starter to kick in. Switch won't do it. Worked when I took it apart. How do I start troubleshooting to determine source of problem? Thanks. This couldn't just be bad ground? minor an electrical guy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

New wheel 23 #7 Posted March 18, 2014 Eric, picked it up in Darlington,Md. The man said he had a lot if inquiries. He wouldn't cow down in price because of all the interest. I will find out when I start using it if it is worth it. Wouldn't care if I never had to put the blower,plow,weights or chains on it. Nice knowing I got them though. Guy sold it for his dad. Hash admitting but the blower on it for 5 years Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
