Do you have a volt meter or a test light?

Thanks for the reply.Yes i have a volt meter..so far as i can tell all the fuses are fine in continuity but don't have any voltage coming into the main fuse panel (key on)That's all i know so far.

Found The Problem in the 4 prong wiring connector that's plugged into the top of the starter solenoid... Happy camper!!..Back on the road.
