The wire off of the fuse panel that goes to the switch, when I wire it up to another 12v source, everything runs fine. Weird.
When I test the source on the fuse panel, the fuse is good, the source shows 12v on a multi-meter(on the fuse, outside the panel where the wire slides on, etc.)... and on the wire.
It is the original fuse panel, so could be some damage somewhere, but I am stumped.
*shrug*
Anyway, for now it is wired up to another power source(extra harness) with 12v and is working great.
Thanks for the replies folks.
