You can troubleshoot this by jumping a lead around different sections of the starting circuit.

Just shooting from the hip here, but it sounds like the fusable link is open.  There is a connector in that link that can become very corroded over time.  I?d look there first.

Hy fellow Imperialists

 

Today I tried to start my 68 Imp. after a few years sitting in the garage.

When I connected the battery the dashboard and interior lights came on normally, but when I tried to start the engine I heard a noise and ALL electrics went down, now there is absolutely no current to anything, can anybody direct me to the shortest way to correct this problem, never before I have come across to something like this.

 

Appreciating your assistance and comments

 

Regards
