ignition starting problem
Thanks fishy,
actually i think you told me how to wire it to begin with about a year ago.
hopefully i'll have enough time and my roommate will be around tommorow night to test the power. Last night before posting i tested the positive side of the coil, with the ignition on it was 12V, cranking, it dropped to 0.3, then back to on, 12V.
I only tested the positive side though. I do have a new ignition switch (i assume you mean the unit the key slides into, i dont remember seeing anywher to hook wires onto it and have never looked at one installed) so i could try to figure out how to switch that just as a back up check.
When i read these wiring diagrams I have difficulty figuring out which direction power is going with some systems. Obviously it goes from the battery or alternator to a switch and then to lights/ignition/accessory/etc...,
but i should understand it better with some time
Thanks!
