Simple fuse box fix?
Ok heres an update. Im really getting close now. Yesterday I lulled my battery out and charged it fully for the day while I was at work, then I put the wiring on my starter relay the way 67Dart273 said with the yellow wire on the tab where it belongs.I then swapped out my Voltage regulator with a new one from O'Reillys .Next I removed the negative battery ground connection to the engine and then retightened it back down after making sure its surface was bare metel. I connected back up the battery and pulled out my headlight knob and got headlights and dashlights and everything inside works even my radio ha ha. While the headlights were still on I checked the big bolt on the starter relay and it had power at the big bolt only but no other spots on it. Lastly I turned my ignition key to start and got nothing at all , but im super stoked that every thing didnt die this time.
I left the alternator disconnected still and then disconnected the battery again and called it a night. Im thinking about buying a new starter relay and positive battery cable but wont have any time this weekend unfortunately. Thats all for now and thanks again you all im really loving all the great advice and learning the ins and out of the old girl.
