Went to start the 500, and this is what I hear:
I checked all the wiring from the relay to the starter, and it was good and tight.
I checked that the starter was bolted on tight.
I swapped the relay to rule that out.
I swapped the ignition cylinder to rule that out.
I gave a quick look at the wires under the dash, they all appeared to be in proper condition and not cut, or any unhooked or loose. Appeared to be.
I jumped the large bolt and S5 on the starter relay with my remote, and the engine turns over smoothly, and fired almost immediately, with no throttle given. Something is making noise, so I shut it off.
So it sounds like crap turning the key, starts like it should with a remote (tried with both relays). I put back everything to the original components, execpt the relay. I'll swap it back in.
Electronic ignition upgrade has been done using 5 pin box and later style four post ballast resistor. No aftermarket items involved.
