If it wasn't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all!
So I go out to do a simple little thing, put the battery in & I notice the brown wire to the starter relay broke off, well first I can't get the clip to release from the plug, end up slicing it open, then my soldering iron decides not to work, put a new tip on & at least got that working.
Soldered the wire back in, put it in the plug & super glued my slit!
With that done I lay the battery in & get out the clamps, put the long one in & move to the short on by the inner fender, well it's many inches too long, check the other set & that's too long too!
Gonna try & cut it down & re-thread it?
I think I'm missing the clamp that connects to that nut on the inner fender, that I can probably make something up.
wired it up & started praying.
Well the powers that be dicn't hear my prayer.
put in the key & all I get is the seat belt buzzer, plug in my seat belt & still buzzing till I completely remove the key.
Then I hit the start, nothing nada zilch, after a few hits I get a faint click from under the dash I think.
So I get my starter buttons & jump at the starter relay, nothing there either.
Now shouldn't that be direct to power the starter?
So I go back in & see if anything else works, nothing to the radio, I get headlights front markers & parking lights up front, nothing out back.
Didn't have a dimmer knob on so don't know if I have dash lights or not.
Then I notice my release lever for the key isn't snaping back, I have to move it by hand!
I'm in trouble, Car wiring has always befuddled me & I never really tried to dig in, I guess now I have to, lost my local assistance that at least knew more than I.
Not sure what I'm going to do now!
