Ultima 53-644 status lite
Was resetting my timing today and after I turned crank to tdc on compression I couldn't get the lite to come on even when
I turned ignition off then on there should have been a flash on the red led. I'm sitting here at work for the next 6 hours mulling over what the problem can be and it just dawned on me I have the sparkplugs sitting on the bench so plug wires are not grounded, can this be the problem?

My thumb over sparkplug hole.

I can't try for a few more hours after I get home
For work but some how I'm think plug wires not grounded through spark plugs grounded to motor will make it have a problem. But I'll have to wait ti see.
I know normally you turn ignition on and the status lite will blink.

That will definetly make the ignition do that!!!! LOL Don't worry we've all had those days!!! I've been doing this long enough, that if I'm getting correct info we can probably diagnose it. Over the years we've seen, screwed up or done most of it. LOL

Yep, I get that a lot with the shovels, It's "yes I remember there was a problem and a fix for it" ------ let me think about it. If you are looking for a decent reference/help book try Donny Petersons Books. He currently has three of the twelve planned in print. Two are about the twin cam's and one is about the EVO's. The twin cam books still have a lot in them about the EVO and it's history. My wife got me the set for Christmas and after looking at them I was very, very impressed, great books for both the neophyte and expert alike, they are well worth the cost!!!!
