770 Ignition Help

oliver66man · Nov 21, 2014

Need a little help, I know this is simple, but I can't get it figured
out. Key switch didn't work on my 770. I jumped across the
contacts, started it up. Then I shut it off. Now I can't get it to work
- even took the switch off since I have to replace it anyway. When I
hit the two wires together - no spark, no nothing. What happened
and what do I need to do? Any help would be so appreciated!

Might want to start at the battery. Make sure all the connections are tight. If you have a prob with a bulb, you can check to see how far the juice is getting.

I'd also check for a fuse blown may be one in line.

I wish I had a dollar for every time I've given this advice: Go to your local auto parts store or Horror Freight and get a $5 test light. All of us are just going to be guessing.

I had a similar problem on my 77, turned out that the ground cable was corroded on the inside, new cable end of problem. Chuck

Check your neutral safety switch. It may be bad, out of alignment or shorted out.

The guessing was all I needed. Chuck had the winner! Thanks guys, I appreciate the guesses. Solved the problem and the ol' girl started up and ran great this morning!
