When the car is in the on position all the dash lights come on and go off and the fuel pump hums and then it stops after a few seconds other than that nothing i checked all the fusses under the hood they are all good but under the dash there is a lot of bare spots in the fuse panel and i don’t know if there is suppose to be or what plus i want to make sure that all the spots have the correct fuse in it. the two wires i saw bare i am trying to figure out where they go and to what they go to. the car i bought for a dollar from a buddy who was driving down a road and it just died on him he had it 9 months and just stopped funny part was he was going to trade it in for a new car
LIke I was saying i had originally thought it was just a dead battery replaced it checked all the plugs they were bad so replaced them and the plug wires. After hearing that the distributor cap could be bad i looked and the points where dirty and some looked broke so i replaced it. While i was there I replaced the rotor on it as well.The local repair guy said that the coil are known to go bad on them so he told me to check the ohms from the positive and negative spots on the side. I got .9 to on the top he said that it was ok and then from where the cap sit on it to check from there to the negative side and i got 15 he said that he was ok but i replaced it anyway thinking sure enough that it was good enough I put it together and still no start or spark. So i broke it back down and checked the possitive and negative side and no voltage at all so i traced the wired to the fuse panel under the hood and all of them were all good. So i was told to check the main relay. Am I going the wrong direction with this or Am i getting close.
