Hi, I disconnected the battery and jumped it directly to the starter. When I pushed the starter button, the starter turned but it did not engage the ring gear. Now as I type I wonder if I had the pos and neg cables reversed (I’ll have to try again this evening). With the Battery connected directly to the starter, the ammeter again went slightly neg with ignition switch pulled but went back to zero when I pushed starter button. I then removed the battery to look into the control box and I noticed the ignition switch has one wire coming from starter and one going to regulator but also a broken one which I assume went to a fuse but the fuse holder rusted away. But I assume this fuse is just for the lights and as long as this broken wire isn’t touching ground it should not be affecting the ammeter going to zero when ign switch is pulled. I guess I should use an ohm meter next and touch ground and the ends of each ignition switch to see if a lack of insulation is allowing part of a Negative wire to touch the positive ground. Thanks so much for all your past help and any future comments! ToddH
