So i posted this problem a couple weeks back. I have an 87 TII, my DD. One day i went to start her and i got absolutely nothing. Turning the key to acc, on, or start does nothing at all. My stereo, blinkers, etc. do not work or come on. Thus something must not be getting power or my switch is bad.

I have checked everything from my battery terminals, to voltage on wires going to my ignition switch. Which the solid black wire gets constant voltage but nothing else does with the key to "acc" "on" "start" nothing changes only power at the black wire. So i got a used ignition switch out it in. Still nothing. All fuses are good, all wiring appears to be good. The weird thing is one day it just started randomly when i went to turn the key. Then the next time i went to start it nothing again, and nothing since.

Any help will be much appreciated guys.

 

Easy. You got a bum used ignition switch.

 

you really think so? it started randomly with the original one, then never again and then with a used one in i still get nothing??

 

Yep. If you've installed the ignition switch properly, and you're testing properly, then the only explanation as to why you're getting power to the black wire and nothing to the other wires is the ignition switch.
