Ign switch
Is there a way of bypassing the ignition switch? I'm having electrical problems when the key is turned on, nothing works and it won't crank. I have power coming into the car with key off but not when key is on. 69 Firebird

Do your headlights work when there’s no key in the cylinder?

When you open the door does the dome light come on?

I suggest you first disconnect, then clean and retighten all your grounds . When you know the
grounds are good then start troubleshooting from there. Glenn |

He said headlights won't work? They don't need key on or off. Grounds as said sound like a good start.

How is this done Scott?
I'll check all grounds first

You just had the motor out yet again for a rebuild and dyno session so any wires you disconnected to get that yanked out of there are what I would visit first.
Make sense?

Yes Steve, going through everything I disconnected at the moment.
I've ordered another ignition switch just incase. It will take a while to get here though.

Sorted :-)
Cleaned all earths and had ignition switch off, so perhaps the rod adjustment helped?
