Guy,
You were correct on your suspicions. The wire that I fixed before came loose.
But to finish testing the switch I need the wire numbers to the terminals.
I'll be fixing the IP wire and this time I'm going to solder the cut wire and prolly lengthen it.
Kris
No wonder I could not see the terminal numbers. They are not marked.
Just on the left and right side of the switch.
So you cant definitively know what number is what.
I made a sketch of where the wires go. So I guess I need to trace the terminal numbers from the wire numbers.
Kris
Ok just made a diagram of where the wires go and took off the nut to the switch because I cant undue the wires without taking out the switch, plus I cant read the terminal numbers.
Hopefully I can read them when I get the switch under a magnifying glass.
Young farts like yall may not have this...
So if I got you correct you would have to have three switches tied together like a 240 breaker switch?
But the 240 only has 2 polls instead of three.
Kris
WOW,
So someone out in the field with bullets flying cant fix it?
This is the same with vehicles with keyed doors and keyed ignitions. (Viet nam police action)
With bullets flying and you lost your keys you are SOL

I didn't have to make multiple trys to start the starter this time. Just the first time, if that gives any clues.
Did it three times and the starter engaged each first try.
This was done to verify the 24 volts
Also the sun was out all day and dried out what the humidity made wet.

Got 24 volts on P80N in start position.
But the connector snapped off while trying to disconnect it.
So will have to install a new connector. It seemed that not many wires were left connected when I try to disconnect it.
Also the terminal started leaking diesel so I had tighten the nut. This...
This is what I call the throttle knob.
I took it apart and put it back together.
It seems to be working but will not lock into position.
Also to get to 60 hz I have to pull it out considerably and will not be able to close the door without being pushed forward
