To all very helpful 914-World readers.

Car was parked in 1988 - not moved since - just started Resurrection in June of this year.

I just started working on the ignition switch - it would not energize starter. NP, I used a jumper for the past few months and ordered a replacement switch. Yesterday I tested the switch on the bench, it worked fine. Installed and still would not energize the starter.

The seat-belt 'safety-switch' has been jumpered, testing at this junction there is an open circuit between the ignition connector and the seat junction of the two Yellow wires.

Question: Is the wire between the ignition plug and the seat junction a solid wire?[u] Or, is there a junction block between the two measurement points?

While I started to run this wire down I noticed that there was hay in the fuse area, so I dropped the fuse panel and found a very large mouse nest. May take the rest of the day to clean this up.......very dirty little critters....

It is supposed to be a solid wire between the ignition switch and the seat belt interlock.


Make sure you have continuity between the ignition switch yellow wire and the one under the passenger seat.
