dome light problem anad other weirdness
I have not been driving the old '70 in a month...had to replace the battery, it wouldn't take a charge. Then, with new battery it would not start, (nothing, no starter engage...) so I knocked on the solenoid 'cause I don't know any better and still no luck. The next day the truck turned right over and started.
Now the dome light wont come on, the light switch will not activate it but I noticed it on at some point while working on it. A few weeks ago my horn would not work but it worked yesterday while driving.
I'm wondering if the solenoid could cause such weirdness, since the positive connection goes thru it. I checked the fuses with a multiM for continuity and showed ok.
Any ideas appreciated,
Chris
