Here I am again guys, asking for advice cause I am stumped....
My Industrial 20 (3cyl Perkins Gas) seems to have a wiring problem that I can't manage to track down. I have traced every wire (except for the light circuit which is unhooked) and replaced damaged wiring so that everything is complete and matches the diagram.
I replaced the ignition switch because the old one pretty much fell apart when I touched it, and replaced the voltage regulator that was pretty well baked. It appears as if the battery moved in the tray (hold down clamp long gone when I got it) and pinched a wire coming from the regulator, causing a short, and heating which cooked alll the wiring within 2 inches of the regulator, all of which I replaced.
I have a good battery installed and am getting 13+ volts from positive to negative and positive to engine block. I have 13+ volts to the starter wire. However, I have no voltage to the ignition switch, and obviously, none coming out of the ignition to fire the solenoid.
I have not resorted to jumping the solenoid straight from the starter wire for fear of damaging something further, but I am about to that point.
Obviously, I am missing something, but can't seem to put my finger on it.
