Default Shovelhead issues

I've got a 1980 superglide FXE I'm having issues with. Originally got it and the pipe came undone shot oil everywhere which a shop seems to have fixed but left a leak from the rear pipe which melted my ignition system wiring. In the process of fixing that. Additionally now the electric start doesn't work. I replaced the solenoid and still nothing no clicking nothing at all as if the battery is completely dead which I know is not the case. I'm looking for a wiring diagram of the hand controls where the starter button is. As well as any other wiring diagrams to the starter to try and fix whatever wiring issue I seem to be having. Any help would be appreciated.
