I can also test for continuity in the ignition switch positions based on that page you posted, correct?

Please revisit the brown wire in the picture, if one of them is brown with white, that one goes to the 60 amp fuse link (MF5). Yes on test of iginition switch. But possbility of wire problems in the nest of vipers should not be overlooked.

You know how sometimes you really hate yourself?

Go to check out the ignition switch. Trace the wire, and its not plugged in. Its the one that goes to the fuse box. Remedy that, and we have life. Oi.

I guess I was so distracted by the spark show I overlooked the obvious.

I would love to paypal you two some beer money or something to compensate the time spent on my idiocy.

cheers

I only drink once a month when I attend my British car club meeting (Brits of the Hudson).
Otherwise I'd never be able to keep my cars running.
