Both original cables appeared to be fine but we replaced them anyway. The new cables are slightly bigger than the originals. Also replaced the starter motor. I have not had the original starter tested yet but I'm going to take it and see if we can have an amp draw test done on it. I spoke to a GM tech and he said if it's drawing more than 250-300 amps that might be the issue. Reassemled everything and test drove it for 15 min and everything seems ok so far. I did leave all the stereo equipment unhooked for now and am now testing that to make sure everything is ok with it. I did a continuity test from the positive power line (unhooked) to the frame and I'm getting a signal which I shouldn't be. I tested from the connector at the battery to the first block where the line split and when I disconnected from the block to the amps I lose continuity. So that issue (if it is one) is between the spliter and amps. It's possibly pulling a ground from something connected to it |
