I had the same problem a few months ago. I tried every which way test wire it, paid an auto sparky to look at it and even took it back to get it tested. After pulling my hair and the pyro out I eventually found it was an earth which I had originally questioned. Believe me when I say this, it's probably an earth. I don't care if you replaced the terminals last week and everything else works, Check em. Battery connections, earth to the body, pull em apart and give them all a good clean, no corrosion and certainly not paint, no loose lugs etc. Anywhere.

Good luck.
Dave
