just came here to say that the voltage you measured with the fluke might be 3V but that might as well mean that it is turned completely off. Because of the way that these measuring devices work, even the slightest current that is induced by parallel lines etc. can give you a reading of 3V – 5V or something similar to that. That is because the multimeter has so high resistance in voltage measuring mode, that it limits the current to something extremely small. When shorted, those 3 Volts would collapse and be more close to 0. So that thing is not energized
It is probably best to consider these 3V as if you had gotten a reading of exactly 0.
Maybe I am just telling everybody things they already know 😀 no clue.
My first inclination with a whopping 3 volts is to pull that chinesium switch out of the dash and jump it after fiddle dicking with the multimeter for a few minutes. Betcha she chooches with that switch bypassed out of the picture! Ice, rain, mud, and corrosion…. its a thing. Next thing is grounding issues. If it ain't a plus problem…. its a minus problem!
Captain! We've managed to re-couple the forward impulse couplings however the magnetic interlock power subsystems are shot! We need more time to re-rout power before we can get underway!
I called Mr. Johnson Dear-God himself, and he says whole things fucked, just bring er in to put her out to pasture
Check the switch, my guess is it has dirty contacts.
never worked on a deer john but have you checked the 4×4 / 2WD switch? Contacts in that switch could be fkd?
Ground problem to switch or I'm Bob.
Very nice job finding those damn pm items tho!
musta been given er good to drop out the suspension enough to yank on the shaft that hard.
No one works alone when yer still puttin out vidjeos!

Bad ground?
Check your grounds
I have some very simmiliar memories
You still got those oily rags that "might" catch on fire? Does homeowners insurance cover Gators?
Your son is getting so big!
It will best to just mount a switch. To engage the solenoid.
This was an especially amusing vidjeoooo
