Good Evening...You might want to disconnect both of your battery cables and check them carefully. A loose end or frayed cables can cause what you have. 12 volt will jump the gap and 6 volt will not. Use your meter and check the cables carefully. Also, if you have the little fuse on the side of the starter, change the fuse as they can fail inside the chrome ends where you can't see the failure. Both things have happened to me. Ernie in Arizona
