    1995 FLD 112, M11 cummins. I have full 12 volts at the push button start switch both into and out of the switch. But I can not get any voltage to the activate pole on the mag relay. Does the wire leave the push button and go into the ecm before going to the mag relay?

    it's common for wires to break anywhere. weather and corrosion wreak havoc on electrical. usually only happens on connections though. but i've seen wires break in the insulation where there's no connector.

    I found the issue. Seems the previous owner or company, either had an anti theft device, or some sort of satellite controlled non start thing installed. Does a qualcomm have something like that? Anyway, I traced enough wires to find it and will remove it so all will be well again.
