Message	-Unplugged HU harness -Disconnected +12V 4 AWG ring terminal from + battery connection. -Removed ground connection from the 2 chassis points, reconnected OEM grounds. -Turn-on lead is disconnected because HU harness is unplugged. Inspected wires coming from EFI harness, no apparent fraying or wearing of the insulating jacket. No ignition fuses blown. Connection on starter is secure, same with alternator connections. Again, the car will crank without issue, it has the power to crank all day. Headlights etc work. Battery is supplying 12.8 VDC when off. If the starter relay were bad, then the starter wouldn't even turn over would it? It would just click right? I'm going to remove the driver side footwell trim cover now. I already inspected the one fuse related to ignition there, and it was fine. "...Downpipes own. They own everything...anything...all there ever was and will be...they should be stock on all cars.
