crossed up - now messed up?

[pduquette]

I've been rewiring my 1980 J-50 elcsr following my seloc manual . tried starting it a couple of times, but nuthing would spin, click ,etc . Broke
each section down by component then realised while testing the starter solinoid that the wireing diagram has the wires flipped . Can anyone tell me if I can expect any thing to be fried ? Not only battery -starter but key and kill were mixed too.

You can pretty much guarantee that the rectifier is now toast.

Test it as per your manual.

Doh !! Just my luck. Should I look deeper ? most of the wires/components were new.
