Hello, I am Jim Dent. I haven't been on here for quite some time but I find myself needing learned assistance on an ignition/starting issue on my 1973 Plymouth Fury. I cannot get the motor to start. It turns over just fine but the electrical connection that supplys the spark is not there. The car has had a myriad of electrical problems in the past but I was able to work all of those out. This is the first time I have experienced this problem I even have one of the fancy laminated wiring schematic sheets and everything appears to be connected properly connected. However, it appears that somewhere along my meddling I have lost a hot or ground connection in one of the wires that run from the ignition switch to the starter solonoid which allows the car to run. The original wire that seems to be at the root of the problem is color coded YELLOW running from the starter solonoid to the ignition switch. Somehow I lost continuity thru this wire (heck, I even lost that end of the damn wire) and I then ran a replacement wire from the same post on the solonoid to the end of the yellow wire that was still attached to the ignition switch. What I really need is a simple (hand-drawn even) drawing of what pertinent wires come from where, going to where-ever in the start circuit of the wiring, just in case I am indeed to ignorant to correctly read and follow the lines on the printed schematic. Is it possible to get some help from one of you guys along these lines? I can be contacted at [email protected] for e-mailed drawings or properly chastized for being such a damn dummy at 859 575.4444 Thank you, Jim
