Gotchya. You could have very well wiggled the back side of the ignition switch enough to restore the connection. In any event, it won't hurt a thing to take some time cleaning all those connections, I don't believe.
ok, i will try and clean out the connections starting at the easiest to get to then I will try again with the bulkhead.
I'll be working on it the whole 3-day weekend so hopefully we can get ALL the issues so far solved.
the big one still being it not wanting to drive.
