So I got to spend the day trouble shooting the Polara. I still have no internal power. So a buddy of mine(he’s an hvac tech and has a much better skill level with with electrical connections than me) came over and we tested each and every wire over the course of about 5 hours. Used a MAC multimeter and a pair of test lights. Started at the battery and worked from there. All the ground test good(I added two new ground straps last summer in addition to the factory two). Ammeter is bypassed btw(yes, correct to Matt’s graphic he sent me).

so here’s where things get interesting. No power whatsoever inside the car. We couldn’t even get power to any of the circuits in the bulkhead connector. However, we have full power at the relay. So we thinking the starter relay is bad. Ordered a new one (well the “old” one was brand new last year too) and then we’ll test again.

Yes, surprisingly I had everything hooked up correct as per the factory electrical diagram. My buddy double checked it and confirmed lol.


My question is, can I by pass the bulkhead connector should it be a problem? It’s pretty corroded. Harness is from a parts car in Arizona(wildcat auto).
