This weekend, I replaced the power stage and the fuel injector controller that is mounted next to the power stage (it had a broken wire to one of the injectors). STill not starting - although it cranks just fine.

I got my loaned out multimeter back and found that I do not have any juice going to either of the spade connectors on the coil when the key is in any position (my arms aren't long enough to test in the start position). And, when I turn the key to ON, I can hear a solonoid click under the driver's seat. I am assuming that this is supplying juice to the fuel pump but I don't hear the pump running.

I also noticed that there is a small yellow wire that has an in-line fuse with open connector on the end. It's hanging in the breeze and looks like it might connect to the battery (it goes thru the firewall on the driver's side). I didn't want to connect it to the pos pole before I knew what is was - it has no connectivity with ground. Any guesses?

Any other ideas about getting power to the coil will be appreciated. Note that I couldn't find a fuse mounted on the fender as was the case with my 240 series and am thinking that the yellow wire might be the 760 substitute. I also have not found a radio suppression device yet.

Thanks for your help!
Greg
