The splices are those common ones in the footwells that get wet, so we started there.
The battery is new, but when its plugged in (ground cable connected) it won't start. If I unhook that cable, and use the posts in the engine, it fires right up. I will use your schematic and dig a bit deeper. Thanks so much!!
