<DIV>Fred: Do you still have the white/black wire connected to the
coil? Still have a cut-off switch in the trunk? Two
possibilities: short in that wire between the coil and the shut off switch
or the cut-off switch has gone bad. </DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr>I have a sudden and confusing problem.
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>The car is a 66 BJ8 and will not start. It will not crank, there isn't an
ignition light and the fuel pump does not run. Nothing works
electrically. No blown fuses.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I have an alternator and negative ground on the car. The car has
started properly for the couple of years I have owned it (previously 35 years
with a BJ7). The battery is fully charged and shows 12.65 volts at the
battery terminals. Voltage at the starter solenoid to ground is
12.57.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>When I jumper the positive terminal of the battery to the battery
connection on the starter solenoid the car will start. The voltage at
the starter solenoid (with the car running and jumper removed) is 14.65 and
the same at the battery terminals and the car continues to run properly.
So, the alternator is charging the battery, all electrical items work and all
is fine at this point.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>When I turn the car off, the same issue repeats and there is a no start,
no ignition light or fuel pump condition, nothing working electrically.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>What am I missing here and what do I check next?</DIV>
