Electrical problem need help!
 
I'm trying to finish up my motor swap in my 91 rs. I've got everything hooked up and now I'm not getting any electrical power. The battery's pushing the right power, but its not getting to anything. Lights won't come on when i open the door, and nothing happens when I put the key in the ignition or turn it. Is there something somewhere not connected correctly, a fuse blown? What should I look for? And the motor swap is from a 305 tbi to a 355 carbureted.
thanks for any help...Jake

I would look for a Fusible link that is blown!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fusible Links look just like a wire!!!!!!!!!!
Usually the link is more flexible than a normal wire and may have heatshrink covering the ends of the link connectorz!!!
Fusible Links simulate an inline fuse and can be sortof messy because they melt!!!!!
Have Fun

The fusible links you're looking for are on the wires at the starter solenoid.

try cleaning your battery posts and cables. most of all battery problems are from there.

I checked the fusible links and they are fine. The problem is that I"m not getting power to my fuse panel. What gives the fuse panel power? Does the distributor or ignition have anything to do with getting power to it? I've checked all my grounds and connections.

The fusible link at the starter solenoid.
