hi all,
just received a new ignition switch from auto atlanta, those guys are great! installed it but still no start. the car will start by jumping the battery to the solenoid with the key in the run position but still wont start with just the key. i should say that i have not put the rest of the steering wheel/ directional switch back together in case it did not work. could this effect it? also it looks like someone before me took the large yellow and yellow/red stripe wire under the passenger seat and hooked them together to bypass the seat belt switch. in addition that relay under the seat and the wires going to it are in bad shape and the mount for the relay has rusted. i'm looking for any suggestions that i could try so please, any help would be great. thanks |

That wire is the one that goes under your seat. It travels from the switch to the seat relay, which Is now bypassed, then to the relay board via a 14 pin connector, then out of the relay board via a 12 pin connector to the starter solenoid.
Search on here or Google. I think it might be in the how to section as well. It's for a 74, but pretty much covers them all. You'll want the relay board diagram as well so you can map it through that as well. |
