Anyone knowledgeable with voltage?
1967 C body, ran great last night. Went to start today, smoked out the red wire that runs from from the starter relay to the firewall and connected up to the ammeter (no ammeter gauge but as per the wiring diagram). Wire replaced put in line fuse and connection checked all the way to the gauge- looks good. L firewall connectors cleaned too.
Went to start, with 10 then 25A fuse, pops soon as key is turned to ign from off, don’t even get as far as crank.
Starter turns and works when jumping the contactors and fuel flow to carb fine.
Can’t voltage test rest of circuit when fuse blows straight away?
Any ideas much appreciated! If I can get key to on position I can prob check the rest of the circuit once supplied with voltage.
