problems...

So I got my dart running. Drove it about 30 mins. Shut it off and started it multiple times. Then one time I got nothing. No power to the selenoid.... coil.... lights or anything. As if I never turned the key... new ignition switch... key lock and tumbler... and ballast thing lol (can't remember what its calles, but the ceramic thing I hear goes out a lot.) Any ideas?

Sounds to me like a bad connection at the firewall bulkhead connector. I bet if you take that apart you'll find a burned and melted wire cavity. The terminals are probably black and not making a good contact. After it's been run it heats up and loses the connection.

Ign Switch is on the column right? And you just put a new one in?? Could connections there have come loose maybe??

Problem solved. All primary power runs through the alternator gauge. Gauge went bag. Boom no power.
