jeepwm69 7,619 Posted July 19, 2023 Welcome aboard. So you have power to the solenoid signal wire and main fuse with the key off, and you lose power to them when you turn the key on? Is the ignition switch stock or aftermarket? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ATC4ever 1,082 Posted July 20, 2023 Sounds like either a connection is bad somewhere, or a fuse blown. You need to trace the wiring from the switch, or start at the solenoid if you like. Obvious Q - is the batt is hooked up correct right? There are manuals with wiring diagrams on here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeepwm69 7,619 Posted July 20, 2023 So when you turn key on, you no longer have power at the main fuse? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
talon 1 Posted July 22, 2023 Battery is hooked up correctly and all the terminals and grounds are cleaned and, yes I lose power to the main fuse also, but that is the only fuse I get power to. And it is all brand new fuses. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeepwm69 7,619 Posted July 22, 2023 Let’s start at the beginning. Did this machine run for you or did you buy it like this? Any signs of chewed up or cut wiring either from a previous owner or rodents? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
