I'd check the condition of the battery ground cable, and especially where the It still did not move.Any ideas?Bob Craen I tried his theory by using jumper cables straight to the starter. ![]() But a fully charged battery will not kick it over either.The local guy said he has seen similar problems and has put on a jumper to bypass all circuitry and run a hot wire straight to the starter from the battery/key. So I assumed the battery was not getting juiced up. The minute you stop it dies again.I put a meter on it and saw that the AC charge was coming out of the alternator, going into the transformer, but not coming out in any form.
