wont start..

the last picture is the resistor wire. i am not sure why they had the blue wire run from the fuse box to the ignition switch. maybe one of the other wires went bad that send power to the fuse box. yellow on the ignition switch is for power to the headlight switch. there should be a orange with white stripe wire going from the main plug to the windshield wiper plug. the black with green stripe is main power to the fuse and from the fuse box to the neutral safety switch. the purple wire is probably suppose to be the black wire in th diagrams and ends up at the voltage regular.

my guess is that one of the fuses or fuse holder terminals is not letting power through the fuses to the other accessories. that may be why the blue wire runs to the fuse box from the ignition switch.

the blue in the fuse box is for aftermarket radio and the blue on the ign switch is the wiper.

oh ok. i thought they were the same wire.

[1967mercury]

ok, so i will check for power to the fuse box.

one more thing,how do you time a 240??

fixed it. my uncle came over today and switched some wires on the solenoid and it works now!
one more problem. the ign switch only cranks the motor if it is not installed in the dash.
if it is in the dash it will operate everything else, just no cranking

has to be a loose spade terminal in the plug. when its in the dash the wire is squished up and wont contact properly.
