Hook the jumper cables up to the negative post of the battery, and the other end to the base of the S/G and see if it will crank. (Use only one of the cables, just leave the other off) If so: bad ground.
If not:
Get that wire back out and make up your "test light" again.
You may not be able to use the jumper cables this time, but reach in and see if the headlamp will light on the post on the solenoid where the wire is from the battery. If yes, then, without touching the key at all (off) touch the other big post on the solenoid. Does it light? It should not. Now, turn the key to the start position and hold it. Does the light light? It should. If it does, then check the "A" post one more time. Does it still light?
Report findings.
