Cleaned terminals for good measure, but was getting voltage to both sides before, so I don't think that was a problem.

1) Ignition wiring:
  • B terminal I have two brown wires (instead of one brown one yellow).
  • C is white.
  • D is red, but also has a black cable (for MSD?)
  • A is yellow rather than green.

ERA build #412 if that matters.

2) MSD 6AL - installed on the X bar near the radiator. Do not see any capacitors around.

jumper a temporarily bypass wire from the big positive side of the starter solenoid to the left screw of the #1 fuse. Assuming it doesn't immediately heat up and start smoking, check to see if your lights now work.
No smoke - I put a 30A fuse inline on the jumper just in case.

No lights. No change in behavior - can crank but goes dead when lights are toggled on.

Thanks for all the direction so far btw!
