electrical issue 1800 1973

greetings All,

i must have way too much time on my hands in the current environment, cut a long story short i was installing another tachometer, and i shorted something out, the net result is that i have no spark.

What i have done so far:

1. replaced #3 and #4 fuse in the box as they were blown
2. replaced condenser as i thot i had open circuit
3. replaced cap, button, coil with old items i replaced 3 years ago, known to be working when removed.

I still have no spark, and no spark at the coil lead at block when engine is cranked. Electrical checks so far, everything works so far except turn signals, probably because i did not replace tach, its still out of the car, hopefully i have provided enough info, i looked thru haynes manual i have, i think i am missing a relay or something, hoping i did not fry control unit,

Thanks for your input in advance,

Rob
