Install a 5-amp, inline fuse in a piece of 22AWG wire so that
the fuse is 6" or less away from the wire's attachment to the
starter motor's main power feed terminal (usually a 5/16"
treaded stud . . . sometimes 3/8"). Extend wire into
the cabin and attach to any handy lamp fixture fitted with
a 12 volt lamp. Helps if this fixture is right in front
of pilot. One side of the lamp is fed with the wire from
the starter, the other side of the lamp is grounded to
airframe or electrical system ground. No press to test
needed . . . you should watch and EXPECT the lamp to light
during cranking . . . a test of the lamp's functionality.
Of course, as the starter switch is released, the lamp
should go dark . . .
