Electrical system 1984 GT
I am at my ropes end on this, I am hoping someone can help;
I have replaced the battery (new) its only pulling 11 volts, new 60 amp Alt., (sufficient for application) new voltage regulator, new starter switch and new battery cables all around.
Car would start with jump run fine, once turned off then would just click and not start. Once I replaced the starter swtich today the lights came on but in a split second it all went off. Now nothing comes on simply nothing.
Any suggestions.... I will check my fuses tomorrow in the daylight but they were fine before everything went out today.
I have had the new alt checked today and it is pulling the right amps.
Please help

Hate to say it but it may be the terminals or cables themselves. Corrosion can eat away at the coper strands in you battery cable and cause the cable itself to fail even though the terminals are clean. Be sure to check the integrity of BOTH ends of BOTH cables.
Check the voltage drop of the battery when you try and start it. Just because the battery is new doesn't mean it's good. It shouldn't drop below 10. Which cables did you replace?
