Hey everyone, so today I was just going over my 76 Silverado, I had the key in aux and was making sure my electric washer pump was good, then I went to start her, and nothing no click no anything,all that happens is the brake light comes on when I go to start and the radio goes out. Any ideas????

Bad ground is the first thing I'd check. Next check the positive connection at the starter.

The positive to the starter looks OK at a glance, I'll dig in more tomorrow, the weird thing g is literally right after running the pump with the motor off. Then boom, also I drive this truck all the to.e everyday with no issues
