Ok like the title says I just relocated my coils, they are MSD Blaster 2's and I decided I would finally mount them vertically like they are supposed to be. Anyways I rewired them up, added 4 ga. wire to lengthen the (-) terminals for the coils, and I doubled up 2 4ga. wires for the thicker (+) terminals... Anyways afterward when I rehooked up the negetive battery cable everything seemed normal, and I went to see if the car would start... No power, so I wiggle some of the main fusebox wires (fusible links) and I can hear my alarm beeping on and off... Anyways I finally got it so the alarm light in my car was on meaning I had power and then I closed the hood look inside again and the power is off...

So I open the hood again wiggled the wires and the power works again...

Anyways im wondering if you guys have any ideas what could be causing this after doing this modification, I made sure all the wires were soldiered and then taped tightly. I can't seem to put my finger on what could be doing this and im freaking out cause the car is getting painted tomorrow.

Thanks

What's up Amigo?
Is your alarm tied into the fuseable link box?
Also check to make sure that the main power wire from the positive battery cable to the fuseable link box is tight and clean.
If the car won't start and the alarm light is not staying on, then there is a connection problem to the alarm system and it is not getting enough power. Trace the wires and look for frayed wiring or loose connections.

 

Ok, I'll go over the line from the battery... Hah I could've figured that one out myself but I was kinda freaking out because of the short deadline for paint.

Thanks for the tip im gonna go look and see if the wire is good!

 

One of your fusible links might be torched, and by wiggling it around you are temporarily reestablishing the connection...

 

OK still having the problem I actually am using the 2nd gen fusebox, so I know all the fuses are good but still wiggling around for a minute seems to work... I dunno what could be doing that...
