Hey guys, first off someone tried to steal my stang last weekend. Obviously they broke off the ignition switch. I put it back in its place, and sealed it with duct tape for a temporary fix. It worked until today. For some reason it wont start, there is no juice running through to the switch. I bought a new one, and even tried to start it without the key, nothing. I'm figuring it's a blown fuse maybe ? Or something wrong with the power wire to the switch. Please I need help. Thanks, Mike

when you turn the key do you see the lights on the dash light up?do you hear the fuel pump? [Confused]
i could be somthing simple as hell .
check out your modual on your distrubutor,those bastards tend to burn out whenever they feel like
check your solonoid,you may have pulled the red hot wire for your ignition(a good kill switch if you ask me and cheap [Big Grin]

yea when i try to start it nothing happens power wise, the gauges on the dash dont re-set themselves...i'm thinking it's got to be the power wire, or a fuse. the fuel pump doesnt turn on, i know the battery is still good...thanks for the reply
