That's some great information 77nomad.

 

i have ground on my harness but i have no power on the connector what so ever, any ideas

 

Track the wire back. If the fuse is in the wire should be hot unless there is a break in it.

 

ok, thanks

 

whats the odds of my keyswitch being bad, the car still starts and runs and everything works though

 

If you are checking power to the harness plug with the key on and it's not hot, then check the fuses to see if they are all hot with the key on. If neither is hot you need to start following wires until you find the problem. Also check the ground to a known ground to be sure it's not broken.
