  1. Locate ignition switch connector under dash. Using a 12-volt test light or voltmeter, ensure voltage is present on Black/Yellow wire (Capri) or Black/Red wire (Festiva) when ignition switch is turned to RUN or ON position. This will verify proper operation of ignition switch.
    NOTE: DO NOT disconnect ignition switch connector during this test.
  2. If there is no voltage at this wire, the problem is either ignition switch, circuit between battery and ignition switch, or 25-amp MAIN fusible link (Festiva).
