Hi Folks,

I have a 2003 Gator4x6 diesel that won't start. I went through months of weak starts, even with a new battery, now zero.

The parts are cheap so I replaced the relay to the solenoid signal cable and the ignition switch. The starter/solenoid work great out of the gator.

There is no voltage to the signal wire. The relay was replaced.

My feeling is that there is a fuse, maybe something inline, upstream of this that I'm missing. There's no fuse panel I can find. When I turn the key I get lights on the panel but no crank.

Any advice of how to get juice to the signal wire?

Have you checked the neutral start switch and ground circuits?

Its even worse. I put it into neutral, turned the key, and now everyhing is dead. No nothing on ignition. Where is the freaking fuse block?

If placing the gear selector into neutral is creating additional fallout... test the switch and grounds.. I believe there are 4 fusible links between the key switch - battery - starter. Follow the red wires.
