Red light on!!!! 120-130 1965

Have you checked the condition of the fuse block? Sometimes they get pretty cruddy and need some repair. Dissemble the whole this (it takes a litle bit of drilling), clean all of the green stuff off, piece-by-piece and re-assemble. If you are good at soldering, tin and solder the whole thing so it won't happen again. I'm not good at that, but I recently did all the other stuff on the kid's '65 122 and it made all the difference in the world. It was amazing how cruddy everything was when I got it apart. It looked o.k. on the outside, but the hidden joints were a mess.

It's possible to send the block to have it done, including ther tinning if you want it done professionally.
