ok 13.2 what are you getting at the ignition switch? Sorry at the battery 13.2. For some reason I get 5.2 at the wires at the ignition switch. How should I go about narrowing down the problem from here.

should be 13.2 ,read the voltage across the fuse. John I do not have an inline fuse on the positive lead to the starting solenoid. It is built into the solenoid itself. Just by unplugging the starter solenoid and getting a reading from the positive key switch wire?

is your ignition switch spring loaded to activate the starter? I need to see the item to help you.

John Ok so I am just gonna upload a picture of the ignition and starter solenoid to google drive and make a folder. I noticed on the starter solenoid that there is 3 wires going into it. I tried to get continuity through the ignition power wire and battery positive and could not get any. Google drive pictures - docs.google.com/folderview?id=0B_MtAXukyTpBTG9zRlBzc0ZtUmc&usp=docslist_api

ok what you have is different from a scooter set up. one side of the starer relay/solenoid should be reading battery voltage. lets see the cdi, the plug and wires and colors. Photobucket.com then upload the pics there then you can do this; john
