What, exactly, gets energized, in each position?
I ask because my starter is not getting power when I turn the key to the "START" position. I was able to start the truck using a safety pin to jam into the purplish wire to the solenoid and manually applying 12v to the safety pin. Obviously this is not a long-term solution, and obviously my problem lies between the key and this wire. My current thinking is that I'll just put a momentary on switch here. But, do I have to worry about something else going south for the "RUN" position? Any idea what part went bad?
