Solenoid wire

[tim simmons]

Went to start my 04 today and the starter wont engage. I unplugged the solenoid wire and jumped it and it works fine. I put a test light on the wire and it becomes hot when i just have the key in the on position. When i try to start it it becomes very dim. Any suggestions?

Voltage is good. I can hear the relays clicking. I swapped them, still nothing. Clutch switch seems fine, i can hear that relay too. When i unplug the Solenoid wire turn the key on and jump the starter it fires right up.

The push button could be bad, I've seen more than one fail.

Is a 06 button the same as 04?

Clutch safety switch? Otherwise push button sounds possible

The buttons should be the same.

Problem solved. A wet relay was the culprit. One of the loose ones in the harness not the fuse block. Thanks for everyones help!!!:burnout:
