74 dart special edition
Ok so I was driving the other night and the car stopped running. I thought it was gas so I pushed to the side got gas and the engine just cranked. I had it towed home so I can play around with it and I’m about to light it on fire. Hahaha irritated.
Clearly no spark since carb is working properly.
12v from battery traced wire back to the fusible that plugs into the firewall and it keeps its voltage that whole way. I don’t seem to be getting power at the ballast on the blue or green wire.
So I’m assuming that’s why the electric ignition isn’t giving power to the ignition coil which isn’t causing distributor to turn to give spark to plug to get engine to start?
Anyways I’m lost now. It’s the first car I’ve wanted to work on and learn so that’s why I’m here. To ask for help.
Also the aftermarket radio the oil light and e brake light stopped working as well when the car shut off and has not turned on since. Is there somewhere I should check or a master fuse or anything that I should look for? The dome lights still work engine tries to start and does everything it should except get spark. Headlights work. Idk
Thank you and please help
