If standard put in neutral, auto leave in park. The engine should turn over or hear the click. Sometimes connection gets dirty or cold will contract enough to loose connection. This bypasses the switch. You can turn it on and if it turns over, will probably start

 

Yup, I forgot about cleaning the battery terminals. And you should hear the solenoid click if you have battery power.

Morning Jim. Frosty 10 here in the hollow.

 

Heat wave up here.somewhere around 16.. those valleys can sure accumulate cold. One morning I snowmobiled to work. Was cold, around-15, I could definitely feel it was colder in the valley. Coworkers were saying they were seeing-20 to-25 as they got closer to work

 

Hope Steve gets it going I would guess connection loosened up due to cold

 

Should have asked if lights dimmed when turning key or not

 

Yup - but he'll either have a clicking solenoid or not. If not then there's another issue.

BTW, Fluid Film is also really good on battery terminals.

 

Hmmmmmm, I gots plenty of those. LOL

 

Clean them all up and then a squirt of FF before you reassemble and you'll be good for a long time. Again, because it isn't a volatile it doesn't evaporate and leave you unprotected. It is also dielectric so not affected by battery current.

 

The BEAST is alive! Battery connections were tight as could be...and clean. Jiggled the cables and wires from the soleinoid something I did worked hahaha

 

Awesome!! Take apart and clean your battery and solenoid connections later

 

Oh man, another project for the to do list

 

Great news! Now off to the rock pile.

 

That's right. Get my breakfast pizza ready. LOL. J/K

 

Hey, I've been to your place. What projects? Looked to me like everything was copacetic!
