I've bypassed the ignition switch and feed power straight to the starter, she cranks and runs. But won't crank with the key..starter wants to initiate the crank but then stops... I have no clue?!

Sounds like a bad relay or a wet one so to be clear if you bypass the starter it will crank and run but the ignition wont crank it over?

Yes it cranks over if I feed straight power...I've been up and down the relays they all seem dry top and bottom..
