Same thing happened on Alianna a few years back. I have a Universal M4-30. There was a fuse in line before the starter. I replaced it. Also there is a spade connection at the starter. Check that connection out. I also replaced my push button starter but looking back I don't think it was the

While you are at this, you might check the engine ground stud for corrosion - disassemble, clean it and the terminals up, protect with dielectric grease, reassemble. Not a huge job. The harness and a bunch of other stuff grounds at this point and unreliable or high resistance grounds can cause

Thanks for the thoughts. Chris wins today’s prize. We got it working again today. It seemed to be the starter button. When I shorted the contacts it worked and after cleaning those contacts, all seems to be well. I am considering replacing that 20 year old switch along with the glow plug

It could be the solenoid. Run jumpers from the battery to the starter, bypassing the solenoid. If that does it, it's the solenoid. Or, you could try using a ;multimeter to see what the voltage is at the input to the solenoid and at the output of the solenoid when you turn the key. Alan Bergen 35

David, It sounds like you have a bad solenoid for your starter and juice is not getting to it. It could also be a bad starter, but more likely the solenoid. It’s a relatively cheap fix, though probably hard to access. All the best, Edd Edd M. Schillay Captain of the Starship Enterprise
