Yes I used a test light just now to confirm power at the alternator, bulkhead junction terminal, big positive lug on the starter AND what I think rules out a faulty ignition switch...the smaller wire that attaches to the S terminal on the solenoid has power when I turn the key to start. I bench tests the new starter and it is good as well. I will post some pics...I’m stumped
