Argo 2003 8x8 conquest. Kawasaki 20 hp.

Fuel pump stopped working, was getting power so replaced with new and filter. Turned key and nothing, pump did not start and stater did not start. Temp gage back light stays on when key off and removed.

The dash is very difficult to access, barely can see with Mirror. Cant see starter. Next step is to pull motor to check wires to starter solenoid? Mush be a short somewhere but cant find the gremlin.
