Default Re: No Power to Starter

It can cause problems if it's backwards like the ammeter would read backwards and if it has a modern generator cutout it might fry that so don't do that.


Do disassemble every place that the current must pass and make sure every connection is clean bare metal.

I know the T is normally a negative-ground system, while the A is normally a positive-ground system. Is the T like the A in that hooking up a battery ‘backwards’ is not much of an issue?
