<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Even more weird:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>As I mentioned, I have been away for three months and
don't remember what I did before. I have checked the wiring converting
from generator to alternator, which appears to agree with instructions.
Here is a repeatable sequence:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>1. Battery tests normal. Ignition switch tests
normal. Red light indicates power out from + terminal to ground at
engine.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>2. Close battery cut-off switch (on +
terminal). All circuits test normal all the way to the ignition switch
input.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>3. Engage ignition switch. Pump and interior
lights go on briefly, then die = something heating up.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>4. Now, there is no power anywhere at the
switch.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>5. Battery shows no power out from the + terminal,
green test light shows power in at the - terminal from ground at
engine to ground at battery. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>6. All returns to the original condition when it
cools.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>7. I assume this is a short to ground problem
somewhere. Where is this backflow coming from?</FONT></DIV>
