Voltmeter quit on me last fall during a trail ride.
Have 14.2v running at alternator, 12v off and 12v at I terminal on starter solenoid so I think that rules out the fusible links.
Have no voltage at the yellow plug for the voltmeter and the black has 0ohm to ground.
My print shows a 14 red and a 10?? Could be 15 yellow termination prior to what I assume is the bulk head connector (symbol on print >>) before connecting to ammeter.
I don’t see a yellow at the bulkhead connection. Any ideas or suggestions?
 
From the fuse block should be a yellow 10ga that goes to a splice one side to the ignition switch one side to the volt meter. The >> means a connector. C100 is the fuse block

Appreciate the help guys! Those prints are much better than the one I had.
When I tested at the ignition switch (could only reach it with my test light) and the bulb seemed dim and I was getting ~0.6VDC at the yellow for voltmeter while cycling the key.
Went back to the fuse block and started removing and reinstalling fuses, seems its a buildup of corrosion at my fuse block terminals because after that I had 12V at the yellow plug.
