Well i was able to get to the garage today. It was the craziest scenario. I removed the starter relay to bench test. Hooked up leads from battery and tested continuity and voltage.
Relay wasn't working. Let leads on relay for a few minutes while i was researching cost for a replacement. Then i tested the relay again and it tested good.... so i installed the relay and then gave the mule a test crank.
Noting happened for a few tries, then like on the 5th or six try, it cranked. Now it runs perfectly fine. Cranks and starts on first try every time.
So i then tried the fan relay. Did the same bench test scenario. Showed bad. So left it hooked up and tried again after a few minutes... low and behold the radiator fan is now working.
It's crazy. I guess the mule sat for a while... i have no idea, the whole things seems nuts.
But whatever ! I'm gonna put the whole thing back together now and be happy!
Sincerely, thank you all for your efforts!
