New Yorker Ignition problems

No. You have a starter relay problem, a nuetral safety switch problem, or a connection problem - not a mechanical problem.

How would I troubleshoot this. I am not real familiar with all of this. Please help!

When you say that *nothing happens* does that also mean that you are ruling out a click from the solenoid?

If you are getting a *click,* if could be the solenoid contacts problem.

I mean nothing at all happens except for the dash board lights come on and the Headlights come on but nothing else. It does not turnover at all.

Listen for the solenoid click. You may need to be outside the vehicle to hear it. If the click is heard, then the starter won't turn, then it could well be the solenoid contacts. Check this group archive as there has been a lot posted on "solenoid contacts". If no click, then check the battery post connections, the engine grounds, the starter connections, and the starter relay. If those all looks good, then check the ignition and park/neutral safety switch.

Good luck

I do hear the solenoid click but nothing happens for several tries.

I think that it is the starter solenoid.

The magneto. One of the great curses of the certified aircraft engine. There are plenty of good reasons for its demise, and few reasons to bring it back. (did you ever notice airplanes need TWO of them)?
