Hi guys. I got my battery hooked up today to test out lights, etc and to ping my starter....not ready to fire it yet. Anyways, I've got 2 major issues and I suspect it's the switch for both but before I take the dash down I thought I'd run it by you all.

First, my headlights don't go on at all and my dome light won't swith off or dim. It's a repro switch. Any tricks I can try?

The other problem is my starter doesn't stir when I attempt to start it. I checked my wiring and I'm pretty sure it's correct...heavy, lt purple wire on drivers side and lighter wire on pass. Battery in middle. I also checked voltage when attempting to start and I get nothing on the outside posts. 12v in the center. ;) It's the original switch in the dash that I cleaned up. Also, the starter is my rebuilt original one. Also, the engine harness gets very hot.

Thanks in advance!

mark,,check the plug real good at the firewall the one that goes into the fuse box. sometimes they get a bad connection,,the same thing happen to me,,good luck

Well...I just played around a bit and solved a few of my problems. I jumpered the neutral safety switch and the starter stirred. I grounded the headlights :clonk: , so I'm in business there. The only problem I still have is the dome light. It won't dim or turn off at the switch when the doors are closed. I'll keep playing around with that one too.
