Hi guys, I posted about this a couple of months ago, my friend is storing my 87 GN after my move from Milwaukee and it simply stopped cranking. Power seems ok, we get lights, just no crank when we turn the key. I'm now at the car and need to drive it back from Milwaukee to NJ next weekend, but I'm a bit stumped.
Looking under the dash next to the fuse panel I see an orange wire with a black connector that is not connected to anything, the other end attaches to something in the top-right of the fuse panel and is a very short wire. Is that something important for ignition? If so, where should it be connected? I don't have any of my GN manuals with me.
Also, another thing I noticed is the steering-wheel lock no longer engages. In my last post someone mentioned the neutral safety switch is in there, could it possibly be something in the top of the column there?
Also, if anyone knows of someone in the Milwaukee area who knows these cars (I'm in Wauwatosa) I'd appreciate it, even a shop, I'm willing to pay - the car runs great and I need to get it running by Saturday the 10th to drive it back to NJ. Thanks!
