    FLU419 electrical issues

    HOOOOLYYYYY crap! You are absolutely on to something here. I held on to the old relays just for a scenario like this... swapped one of the new ones out with an old, and BOOM, now K1 is audibly clicking, and I've got a switched 24V at the starter solenoid being controlled by the starter switch. I...

    FLU419 electrical issues

    Mmk, did some testing, pulled each one of the relays while measuring V on the blue wire at the starter. I did get the voltage to cut to 0 when pulling one of them, but it was in the K2 position... that could very well be that the relays just aren't in the correct position on the relay rack...

    FLU419 electrical issues

    I do have 24V at the top post on the starter. Continuity on my jumper switch checks out good. After disconnecting the wires from the screw terminal, I get a reading right around 90ohms on that terminal when grounding to the block... definitely not the 1ohm I was looking for, but not an open loop...

    FLU419 electrical issues

    Got nothing... no clicks or anything. So either a bad solenoid, or a grounding issue? I'm guessing the next step is rip the starter out, tear it apart, and clean everything up?

    FLU419 electrical issues

    So, I actually asked about doing this and was told that for some reason this wasn't possible on this machine. Wish I could remember what the reason was that they gave, but I don't. Anyhow, I'm willing to disregard that entirely and give it a try, if you will tell me which one of these I should...

    FLU419 electrical issues

    I understand the routing, but am not sure what you're getting at here. Wire 11 goes from the ignition switch to the starter, with connector D in the middle of it. For the test in step 4, it specifically says to disconnect connector D. With it disconnected, I do not get any power when testing...

    FLU419 electrical issues

    Alright, back for another attempt... I made it through the entire electrical diagnostic section of TM 5-2420-244-20-1 and was not able to find any issues. I then at some point realized that "ignition switch", "engine start switch", and "starter switch" all refer to different things and was...

    FLU419 electrical issues

    Yes, I am aware that it's referring to wire 12 in the diagram. The problem is that I have no clue what the diagram is a diagram of. It's not labeled, just shows an arrow coming from what seems to be a plug, and nothing anywhere near that plug resembles what's shown in the diagram.

    FLU419 electrical issues

    I wish it were as easy to follow for me as it seems to be for you... every step takes multiple layers of decryption to figure out what it's asking me to do. I've tried going through the steps many times and have never made it far because of exactly that reason. I'm stuck on step 8, page 3-72 of...

    FLU419 electrical issues

    Welp, went ahead and replaced all 5 of the 5 pin 24 volt relays in hopes that my previous testing of them was insufficient as you all seem to be suggesting, but I'm back at the very same spot, no difference. What next?

    FLU419 electrical issues

    Still struggling to figure out what the issue is. I've read through hundreds of pages on here, gone through all the manuals, stared at the charts for hours... none of it makes any sense to me. Can someone please write out a procedural list of how the starting system is supposed to work? I have...

    FLU419 electrical issues

    I have made progress in testing, but have not been able to find the issue. I have tested the main power switch that comes right off the battery, the main keyed switch in the dash, the starter button, and the clutch switch... they all needed to be cleaned up a bit, but seem to be functioning and...

    FLU419 electrical issues

    Hello, I have a FLU-419 that I bought a few years back. Every once in a while I would encounter an issue where I would go to start it and nothing would happen. Messing with the clutch pedal and continually hitting the start button would eventually get it to fix itself and it would fire right up...
