Before I messed things up, my 78 with the 400 started fine. The wiper motor would click when I tried to turn them on, but did not operate.
I took the motor off and monkeyed around with it. I hooked it back up, but may have had one of the connectors reversed, because when I tried it again, I got no clicking at all. So, I pulled the connectors back off, then made sure they went back on the right way. Still no clicking.
Now here is the thing.... I don't have a starter now either!
When I turn the key to the first position, the gauge shows good voltage. When I turn the key to the start postion, I can hear the "ping" in the instrument cluster, but not a peep from the starter.
Could I have burned out a fusible link? If so, how the heck do I locate it? Today is the big cruise here in town, and I'm dead in the driveway. HELP!
