Ever have one of those forehead-slapping moments where you thought "Wow! Why didn't I think of that?"
I've always been notoriously bad at diagnosing stuff that goes wrong with my cars. I'm not sure why. I can put stuff together great, but when something goes wrong, I'm hopeless. That is, until I read your post. This is exactly the approach I take when debugging something on a website or web-based application I've built. Just as you said, go to where you know everything is right and work your way up the chain.

Not long after I got the 71 the car wouldn't start I just figured it was the fact the positive end of the soleniod was loose or the crappy battery terminals, which I am not ruling out.... yet. Anyway today I jerked the starter off and fixed the soleniod. I tried the key and it bumped over for a second then quit. Then I tried the lights, nothing. So I thought bad connection, I wiggled the wires and checked the fuses and nothing. So tomorrow I'm off to buy some terminals. Any other ideas in case that don't work? Anyway thanks in advance.
