I have a Universal M4-30 in Alianna. There is a well documented problem with the wiring harness involving where the ammeter, the length and gage of wires used and the trailer connectors used. I had similar problem and traced to the spade connector to the solenoid for the starter motor. That’s the first connection to check. If it’s loose no start and engine vibration can loosen it
