VerifiedHi, My name is***** will be glad to try to help. We can follow up as needed on here. Professionals are not employees of the site but users of the site and help on here as time allows depending on their daily schedule. Sorry to hear you're having these troubles with this machine and I see you have been waiting some time for some advice on this. Test your battery with a digital battery tester and load tester for possible bad cells or other internal problems. Check all battery cables and connections for any corrosion or damage that would cause a poor connection, including all grounds. Be sure to check all fuses and relays. Use a voltage tester to probe the top two metal tabs of each fuse while replacing any fuse with power only on one side. Swap your relays one at a time with a known good one for testing purpose. Verify power in and out of the ignition switch in each switched position. Test for voltage at the starter solenoid signal wire or S terminal with all safety interlocks engaged and the ignition switch in the crank position. If you have battery voltage there but no response from the starter, it's an indication of a faulty starter solenoid or starter assembly. If there is no battery voltage there, check your ignition switch and safety interlock circuit for problems. I hope you find this information helpful. Reply back with the results of these checks if any further help is needed. It is a pleasure to help anyway I can.
