80 vette electric trouble

[Eric Christie]

This may seem like a simple question, but I am stumped. I am reinstalling the interior in my 80 vette, and I have no power. The only signal I can get is off the big cable to the starter. Does all the power run through the starter motor? I have unhooked the cables from the starter in preparation for engine removal. I can't get the lights, the windows, horn, etc. to work. It did in the past while I was removing the interior. I am not sure if I bumped or tripped something. Ant help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Eric

If the 80 is similar to older cars, the power is actually fed from the starter solenoid. Make sure all those connections are intact.

Thank you. I checked the connections and they are tight, and still no juice. I will go back and test the wires again. This is crazy!
