Could it be that a relay is not wired correctly?? sounds like you have a handel on what needs to be done. the remote starts trigger a relay that triggers the solenoids on my 94

here is a link to an article on Bosch relays and if you scroll down there is a diagream of the varions configurations necessary

> I have a 87 FC 35 and the generator will not start from any starting console. The generator is an Onan 8.0 diesel I took the starter off and had it checked, checked out great. I put the starter back on and it still will not start. I then short the solenoid wire to the battery and it would start if was getting the signal from the console. I have since taken apart the console on the generator itself to find the Ford style starter solenoid inside and checked it out and it works fine. The ground side of the solenoid at this point seems to be getting the wrong signal as it should be grounding and in fact has 12 volts to it. The switch side of the solenoid at this point has a little over 8 volts when the starter switch is activated. The generator attempts to start as it should operating the fuel shutoff and finally for lack of a better word times out and either trips the DC output control or the push to reset circuit breaker. From this can someone either tell me what to look for or if at all possible supply me with a schematic. Any help is greatly appreciated.
