I was doing a carb tune and the car stalled, so I went to restart the car and nothing happened at all. I noticed the dome light was off and also none of the lights or accessories worked. I took out the cluster because I was going to change the ammeter out anyway because the needle didn't move. Well it was stuck, but because it melted to the frame. I'm guessing that's why nothing happened when I turned the key and had no lights working. So some say to run a wire from the alternator to the battery and some say to wire the ammeter terminals together and do away with the ammeter. I have a spare good ammeter. I just want to keep it all stock. Is there a way to make it more reliable? I installed a new engine/light harness, and a good dash harness too. Before this everything worked good. It only has variable wipers, heater, radio, and backup lights as options. Before this happened I put a new fusible link on when I put the harnesses on, and nothing else was burned or melted. Can't you add a bigger wire or an inline fuse somewhere incase of another ammeter meltdown?
