So I'm stumped here. The subharness goes into the main harness in the plastic protector, then goes up to the dash where there is a Y. One arm of the Y goes to ignition, the other to the PTO knob. The wire I'm tracing from the small solenoid terminal is orange where it enters the main harness, but there are 3 orange wires (combined) in the 2 arms of the Y. None are giving me continuity to the single orange wire at the point just before it enters the main harness.
This suggests 2 things to me:
1) there is a break somewhere in the main harness and I need to tear it apart to find it
2) #1 is completely wrong, there is something I don't understand about the wiring that is causing this result, and I'll need help to get past this speed bump.
I'll bet dollars to donuts its #2.
PS-I probably should say resistance not continuity because that's what I am actually measuring so far. I have low resistance from the main harness to the solenoid
