well i'll be damned replaced ground still nothing after couple hours chasing wires, realized when i was puttin starter wires on, must of hooked dist plug in on bottom with my hand and unplugged it....easiest things are the hardest to find :(
Thanks for all the help Brewski
goin to back site in a few hours, i'll update you when i have an answer.
Connect a voltmeter to the solenoid terminal( pos. lead). Connect the negative lead to the starter body. Try to start the truck. Are you getting any voltage?
If II remember correctly there is a ground wire on the alternator. Usually the run through the loom to a ground terminal.
Brewski, Thanks for everything so far. Went and reran burnt off ground, connected back into jumble of wires it was, nothing, getting lights in dash turn key can hear relay click, noticed there was what looks like ground wire, comming from alternator, over to starter side, any chance that bolts up with the starter ground and i just missed one? Any idea, only 3rd yale/hyster i've really worked on,
Thanks
That should work as long as the block is grounded to the battery.
ok that's what i figured, now the side near starter wasn't connected to anything , where should that bolt, Is the bolt that mounts the starter to engine?
Just extend the added wires and ground with the new ground cable.
