Trouble with starter

I don't understand your terminology. Your relay should look something like this:





Two push on terminals (In photo, the two near the bottom)

Either one of these goes to the yellow "start" signal wire

Remaining is grounded, either directly, or through neutral safety, or through clutch safety switch

One "square" screw terminal (in middle)

This should have approx no12-10 sized wire from it ONLY to the small "solenoid" terminal on the starter

Large stud (on top)

This is a junction point. If the battery goes directly to the starter, there should be some sort of wire connecting this to the battery, and also from here to the bulkhead connector via the fuse link

It sounds from your description:

Big pos. Cable going to starter smaller pos. going to pos. on Starter relAy
Neg. On relay going to neg. On starter

Fusible link from bulkhead going to pos on relay

Then solid yellow from bulkhead going to landed terminal on relay

And brown/ yellow going to vertical terminal on relay. Am I missing something I tried grounding brown and yellow wire but nothing gives.

Maybe you have it miswired.

Try jamming a screwdriver between the only two bare terminals, (big stud and "square" screw terminal) That should cause the starter to crank

If so, disconnect both wires from the "push on" terminals. Ground one "push on" terminal ON THE RELAY with a clip lead

Then jumper the remaining bare "push on" terminal of the relay to the big stud. Again it should crank

If this works, find the yellow / yelow/ stripe wire from the bulkhead and connect it to the bare push on. Leave the clip lead on the other push on. Twist the key, it should crank.

If not, use your test light ON THE WIRE you just hooked up. You should get a light when you twist the key to start

If not, either you have the wrong wire, or there's a problem between there, the bulkhead connector, and the ignition switch.
