Hal,
I've got a multimeter, OK will do. I did get the continuity tester light to
light and now thinking how stupid I should have tried to pull the starter
as that's how I would know if the starter works. I will clean all
connectors and test with multimeter and use heavy gauge wire now can I go
directly to the battery then pull the starter to test the starter? I will
get a new battery if needed.
Lin
PS if the light goes on via pump power doesn't it mean the pump is in
working condition?
