Default My fog machine problem will have to wait...

So I went out to start my car this morning and see if its still fogging.

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show...6&page=1&pp=20

Well the car was dead so I got out my handy dandy test light. Turns out there is power at the starter but that its it. The ignition and horn relay are dead. So I guess its a fuseable link issue or just one of the many cut & reconnected wires gave out. Prior owner(s) bubba'd a lot of stuff. So I jacked it up and will have to start tracing the wire to the horn relay. Where is the fuseable link located in the harness? Is it right after the starter or closer to the horn relay? I think there are actually multiple fuseable links on a 71. Yippie!!!

So I have to fix a problem to test problem to determine what the problem, in fact, is. Ughhhh.....

Bummer. On my 71 there are fusible links right at the starter. Two of them, I think.
