You already checked the battery terminals, right?  Only because I've been burned twice now by loose terminal connections...

Subject: [St] Starting problem



I went to start my 2000 RS on Thanksgiving.  I turned the key to run -
the headlights and cockpit gages did not turn on.  I put the battery on
the tender and waited.  The next morning I took the battery off the
tender and tried again...no headlights or cockpit gage.  I wiggled the
key and did get intermittent power to the lights and cockpit gages.  I
looked at the shop manual and there are no directions for taking apart
the keyswitch.  Is it the keyswitch? Or battery (it is the original, but
it is holding a charge and the lights and cockpit gages should come on
with the tender)?  Or wires going to the keyswitch?  Or, maybe the main
relay just forward of the fuses?  I did check the fuses, the 30 amp is
good...is there any good help out there?
