cummins ignition problems
Just purchased a 2000 Winnebago with a 5.9 Cummins ISB. It had been sitting in a field for several years and has rust issues on the undercarriage. Had problems with the ignition right from the start...

when I Hotwire the starter it starts right up so I'm inking that my starter is good and the problem lies elsewhere. Does anyone know if a bad ignition would prevent the fuel solinoid from shutting off?
I haven't seen that failure mode of a switch but that doesn't mean much.
Can you unplug the wire at the solenoid and cause it to shut down?
IIRC there is nothing between the ign. switch and the fuel sol. on the earlier engines. You could verify this by checking the color of the wire at the solenoid and seeing if you leads all the way back to the switch.
So if it will shut down by pulling the wire it has to be the switch.
