The small wire should have voltage when in the S position of the key. The starter relay should engage and spin the engine when that little terminal gets voltage. If you take the wire off of the terminal and use a jumper to that small terminal from the battery non grounded terminal, it will either work (crank) or not work (not crank). If it still does not crank, the fault is either a faulty ground to the starter/solenoid combo, or a bad solenoid. If it does crank the problem is in the wire coming from the ignition switch, or the supply to the switch. A volt meter will measure voltage on and open ended wire easily. This can fool a person into believing it is working. A poor connection, or bad wire can pass enough current to read good voltage, but not supply any where near enough to pull in the solenoid. If you leave it attached to the solenoid when checking its voltage when trying to crank, you will find your answer related to the switch and wires. !2v it is the solenoid, less than 6v it is the switch/wires.

They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
