Hi Ken, I have the vehicle listed above and it won’t engage the kick starter when push button is pressed, rather it turns the dash off.

VIN: 4A4AR4AU0EE028967

I like to have Diagram of the push button to the kick stater relay and the kickstarter .

A broken wire leaving the fuse box relay to the starter. From the previous diagram you sent, we followed and saw a broken wire.
