Re: Starting issue that doesn't make sense..

Okay, so I followed the line from the positive terminal 12.7v to the fuse box, to the ignition switch out of the ignition switch 10.3 to the fuse box engine bay side 9.3-9.7 and down to the solenoid, when I discovered that the I can no longer jump the solenoid. Trying to do so caused a short. Noticed that the bridge connection that goes from the solenoid into the starter motor housing (where the rubber gromment goes around the connection) well the gromment had split and the connection was touching the housing. Pulled the whole unit and tried to bench test the solenoid... nada.
Guess I will be making a trip to autozone.

Would the short at the starter have caused the voltage leak all the way back to the iginition switch?
