Hi, I’ve been searching and reading trying to figure out what’s going out with my Vector. I replaced the battery last week and after putting back together I have no power anywhere in the sled. I’ve triple checked every connection. Replaced starter solenoid, checked all fuses, replaced one main 40A fuse because I saw some green oxidation in it. I still have no power what’s so ever. Any help would be great. I can jump the Starter solenoid and it will turn over the machine.
 
So the starter motor itself isn't frozen at least. Sounds like a stupid question, but what does your new battery voltage read on a multimeter? Also stupid but, some new batteries reverse the positive and negative terminal position on the battery itself.
 
try a different ignition switch. I have seen them corroded and acting like this.
