Classic ZF trouble..?? 87FC35

[pattypape]

Alan,

Another intermittant troubled area is the multi-pin round twist lock
wire connectors. They are located under the main dash panel. There
are four or five of these connectors. The wires from the ignition
key switch go directly to one of them on the far right side. These
pins carry a lot of current and they tarnish and become
intermittent.
Use electronic contact cleaner, the main dash must be lifted,
careful here lots of wires, gages and switches.
A tipical symtom is that the dash warning lights will not glow and
The buzzers do not sound with the Key turned "On" .

Could also be the ignition switch, solenoid, or a starting ground.
