jbc3 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Yesterday I was driving and all of a sudden the radio shuts off. I thought it was just a fuse, so I drove home. I found No blown fuses at all. Then I realized that I had no power at all at the stock fuse block. None.... Zippo ??? No heater fan, no interior lights, no horn, no tail lights etc..... I did have power to the headlights. I installed a fuse block under the hood and one under the dash that I powered my PCM, fans, Electric water pump, fuel pump etc... in other words, all the stuff I added. The one under the dash is powered directly off the battery and the one under the dash is powered off a relay triggered off the "on" side of the key switch. The engine runs fine still. When I did my install, I pulled all of the stock 280 fusible links and replaced them with the GM links I took from my donor car. I left the rest of the harness basically intact for the accessories etc. I pulled the fusible links out of the harness and tested them and they all seemed fine. It was getting late , so I pulled the car in the garage and quit for the evening. I'll be testing the various circuits and going searching, but I thought maybe someone may have an idea of something obvious that I am overlooking.

jbc3 Posted March 28, 2006 Author Share Posted March 28, 2006 OK, I figured it out..... There is a plug under the dash where the main power wires from the fusible links connect to the rest of the harness. I found the damn thing was loose. Everything is back to normal. I know these plugs don't unplug themselves so I would assume that I probably never plugged it in tightly from all the re-wiring I have done.
