I need a little help starting the 65

Hi, Should be a Neutral Safety Switch there, you can test it with a VOM to ensure it closes the circuit on a continuity setting, or jump it by temporarily landing the terminals together (Just remember you did & repair).
If it was fine before storage, it’s likely a simple connection, or dirty contact inside the Keyswitch, it’s circuit, Starter Relay, Grounds. Recheck your work.
Pony’s detest stagnation & let you know it!
Can you confirm you have Voltage to fire the Solenoid by using a VOM’s lead tip through it’s wire’s insulation from above with a VOM on DCV, grounding the other lead & have someone turn the key to the “start” position?
A physical “tap” with the plastic end of a Screwdriver may help your Relay “remember” it needs to work again, same with the starter with a “love tap” or two on its base with a flatface of a weighty hammer.
Good luck! -John

Thanks for the reply. Turns out that the solenoid went bad, only a couple of months old and it crapped out. at least it was a cheap fix.
Thanks

I had a brand new one crap out on me! I was chasing my tail and the damn solenoid was bad!

Hi, Glad you located yours, too. Just because it’s new doesn’t mean it’s a done deal. They really do make some junk these days. Hope you were able to get some credit back towards a replacement. If not, you could pursue that route. Used to be able to buy something and rely on it yielding a reasonable lifespan. Best of luck to both of you!
