Rob,
I actually tried moving the key around. My boss had a 760 that would run without anything else working. No heat, lights or anything. Jiggle the key and like magic, everything would work. This did not make a difference on mine. I will try the wire from the battery to the fenderwell area. It looks iffy. The fuse in the fuse holder is not blown. I will check it for power with a test light tomorrow. It's supposed to get up into the 50's tomorrow. I hate working in the cold. Right now it's freezing and was snowing earlier. There is rust around the windshield where water could get in. I'm betting something got rusted there too, although the fuses look good. The previous owner coated them with some kind of grease too. I wiped it off. Thanks, I'll keep you posted.
Ben
