Husband thinks it's the ignition switch or a connector. So that's what we're going to look at next. I'll check the battery connections but they don't seem to have corrosion on them.
A bad battery can easily read 12v at rest. What does yours read when you hit the start button, measured on the battery terminals themselves and at the battery cable ends, as I posted above?
