      Problem fixed!! I contacted my mate electrician who sent me a video of the coil relay he fitted and how to test it with my multimeter! I wasnt getting power into one side when ignition was on. I traced those cables to a plumbed in after market fuse holder that I think my electrician mate fitted. Bingo!! 20 amp fuse had blown.

      I just couldnt see that fuse or knew it was affecting the ignition system. Think i might have previously damaged it when I arched the alterrnator in the past.
      Yey!! running again!!
