No power issue.

hey everyone. havent been on here in a while. almost 10 years. i just picked up another 3rd gen. a 90 rs with the 3.1l (it wont stay there).

anyways i am not getting any power inside the cab of the car. nothing to the fuse block, ignition switch etc.. i have power in the bay at the alternator and starter etc but nothing inside. this is how i bought it.

ive been out of the 3rd gen game soo long i forgot alot of the stuff on these cars. also ive never had a v6 version. always been a z28 or iroc.

pic for attention. i had to get rid of the wheels it had and no i did not put the iroc stickers on it.

Re: No power issue.

Start at the same place as everybody else that has this problem... fusible links.

On the 3.1L there's a junction block on the radiator support near the battery where most of the fusible links get power from the battery cable. That's in addition to a few at the positive post on the starter.
