Re: 55 1st series electrical issue

not an expert but Im going thru a complete wire job. Definetly sounds like a bad solenoid, like bartman said, if it has one. Check your fuse panel with a light tester. If your not getting any power to of from your panel, its most likely the solenoid. Your soleniod power wire is whats powers the fuse panel. Check to see how the coil is wired up. If its wired directly to the battery or off a hot lead not thru the fuse box, that would explain why the coil has power and accessories, horn, headlights dont.
