starting issue

I have an American autowire harness . this is where I'm at now. put my meter on the coil wasn't getting a reading. went to bulkhead connector noticed the pink and brown wires (battery and tach ) wire spades were not seated well and were loose, tried to tightened , well you know how that works going to order new spades and install them, make sure everything is tight and try again and i'll let you know how well ( or not well) I do.
