Re: What did i do wrong
Nothing in a alt conversion should interfere with starter wiring.
So go put the shifter in PARK and try again. I don't want to talk about how I know this one.

Re: What did i do wrong
Check and re-check your wiring hook-up. Maybe connected it wrong?

Re: What did i do wrong
I hate this one, but play with the shifter and see if it is the neutral safety switch.

Re: What did i do wrong
Neutral safety sw... How true. I banged on an old battery (posts) trying to get some sound out of the starter for some time before I realized the switch was out of adjustment.
However, I don't believe that will keep the lights or horn from working. I may be wrong but if nothing works, then it's got to be something wrong in the battery area. Check fusible link, fuses (small one by the battery), cables, battery posts, battery itself, ground cables. Last edited by 68gmsee; 02-18-2008 at 10:08 PM. |
