I was driving down the road last week, when I lost everything. Headlights, radio and motor. I replaced the fusable link and starter solenoid, started checked out fine. I have power going to the ouside of the fusebox at the firewall but nothing inside at the fusebox. I need help, any suggestions would be appreciated. It is a 67 cab, four wheel drive with a 350.

I would start with the bulkhead connector. Pull it apart and check out the connector terminals, clean as necessary. If you have never taken one apart, there is a 3/8 headed screw that holds the outside part in place. Remove the screw and unplug.

Good luck!

If you have the plug apart,and have power to the plug, pull the fuse block and check behind it, The main thing is follow the hot wire till you no longer have power

hmm sounds liek to me that you are gonna have to pull the fuseblock out, but I would also check the ignition switch cuz all the main power runs through there too, and if the contacts are worn or fubared then you will also have nothing
