The only way I have checked one is to switch the switch.
Maybe someone here knows how to run a jumper or something to check it.

Bad ground at the engine end of the battery cable. Or if there is ANY corrosion visible on the battery cables they can be eaten up real bad under the insulation. I chased one of these one time till I damn near went insane.
I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

Or if there is ANY corrosion visible on the battery cables they can be eaten up real bad under the insulation. That's exactly what I was referring to when I asked about the cable. I was ready to throw a pipe wrench through the windshield of my old 72 C10, when my son said, "Look at this cable Dad". I had cleaned the terminals but didn't think a thing about the cable itself. When I peeled the insulation back, it was covered up whitish looking with corrosion.

Same thing last month for me. Tightened the terminal to cable connection, problem no more.
