yep, sure did.

Matt,
I only checked to see if I had power to the run/key-on terminal on the ballast resistor. Are you saying to look for 12v at the starter solenoid while the starter is cranking?

if the starter is cranking, there is no need to check for power there, check for 12v at the bypass terminal on the resistor. there needs to be 12v to the bypass whail cranking, a wire from the starter is the easiest way to achive this.
