Reply to "Short Circuit During Key Accessory Position"

jwelch68Member

I check the dash ground and it is good and tight, I never removed it doing disassembly of the dash.

I removed the starter solenoid wire from the firewall solenoid and everything worked as it should. When I connect it back up to the solenoid the battery drops to 3V when cranking. So I either have a bad battery or my new DB Electrical starter must be bound up on the flywheel. I did install a 0.100" shim to see if that would help but the same results.

I will have the battery tested tomorrow and go from there. If the battery is good then I still don't have the starter positioned correctly.

The first two gear reduction starters burnt up because they were till engaged when the engine was running during cam break in.

Any thoughts on the starter?

Thanks,

John
