After more testing I was able to spin the engine over by shorting #30 and #50 at the harness end. Then I proceeded to remove the ignition switch (a little tricky for an old guy) and checked continuity between #30 and #50 in the starting position. Nothing. A new one is on the way from our sponsor.

thanks for the assistance

Thought I had it, engine cranks when I connect terminals #30 and #50 on the wiring harness, so it would appear to follow when the ignition switch is turned to the start position #30 and #50 would make a connection. However when I connect my ohmeter to terminals #30 and #50 on the back of the switch (on the bench) with the key turned to the start position I do not get a closed circuit. I am probably in the middle of the forest and cannot find any trees?
