No reason to run a separate start button. Just find the wire that is supposed to start the thing, cut and splice a new wire where you are getting good voltage immediately and run it to the starter terminal. Of course this is not the heavy starter cable I am referring to. The solenoid that kicks in and sends the heavy current to the starter of course.
I seem to have an open wire on my RV as of a couple of days ago. Chasing it is all but impossible without my Fox and Hound tracing device.
Your description sure sounds like a lazy relay/poor contact.
If your signal passes through one of those relays shown in your picture try removing them one at a time to see if it PREvents the engine from turning over. If you find one that does, swap it with one of the others that has the same part number.
Could tell us more about the Fox and Hound tester?
Maybe a photo and supplier?
Thx
