WHEN YOU TOUCH BATTERY LUG TO THE S TERMINAL IT SHOULD TURN OVER STARTER..IF SO THEN THE SOLENOID IS BAD EASY FIX...ALSO JUST BECAUSE ITS GETTIND POWER ELSEWHERE..IT CAN STILL BE THE BATTER/TERMINALS/AND GROUND.CLEAN ALL AND TEST BATTER VOLTAGE WITH EVERYTHING OFF THEN TURN ON THE HEAD LIGHTS..IF THE BATTERY VOLTAGE DROPS MORE THAN 1 1/2 VOLTS THE BATTERY MIGHT BE BAD..ANYWAY WELL FIGURE IT OUT..LET US/ME KNOW...K

Now I've put a new battery on it an it won't get power unless I got it hooked up to a pair of jumper cables to another car then all the lights come on but still nothing
