On the short in starter circuit wiring, depending on how you place the meter you may be reading thru the solenoid coil. On the wire going to the ign switch, if the switch is off there should be no continuity to ground. If switch is on then you could be reading thru any number of items which are connected to ground on their other side. On the wire going to the solenoid you will read a short because the other side of solenoid coil is grounded and you are reading thru 1 ohm or less of coil wiring. WIth wires disconnected from the starter switch and checking the switch terminals to ground there should be no continuity on either terminal at any time.
