Stuck_in_first

The several times I have run into this on my rig and others it was a wiring harness running near an exhaust manifold. The Mfg like to run wires near them. When they heat up they move like a thermostat spring and short out then cool and move away. One repair shop dident put back a small bracket letting the wires droop just enough to touch the manifold. Ran a wire from batt into cab thru a switch then to pos side of coil. When engine died turned switch on and engine refired. Found when I tightened wires on starter only used one hand and the wire twisted enough be affected by the manifold heat. Hope this helps.
