Great! At the back of the solenoids, see the small and blue wires? The black (ground wires) are underneath the 2 post. Now do your voltage reading tests. Pull the black wires off , you shpuld have 12 volts (negative) all the time, if not a ground problem. Nowpull off the blue wire and with the key in forward, press the accelrator, you should read 12 volts positive. Remove the yellow lead, key in reverse,press the pedal, you should read 12 volts positive. If these volage readings are not present, the problem is before the solenoids and we can address that.

Have you checked the negative fuse? (right there behind the solenoid -round rubber, just pull the rubber apart, it will have a 10 amp round glass fuse). Also, at the battery positive termal, make shure the small red/white wire is connected to the main wire harness, don't just look at it, if it has a bulit wire connection, pull it apart and make shure there is no corrossion. Also check the positive fuse, its just left of the battery, between the battery and the solenoids (looks just like the negative fuse holder).
