Hi! First post, so I hope this makes sense. I just bought a 73 mach 1. When it was parked a yr and a half ago, the key would start the car, and everything worked,. Now, the key turns on the dome light and nothing else works at all. It will "jump" and run. The horn works, and the hazards work, but the headlights and blinkers do not. There are four fuses that are not blown, but have no power. .... lol. .. any ideas?

The fuse blocks corrode ,try cleaning the connections in the fuse block . Also check the wires at the starter solenoid ,those connections corrode as well ,take them off and clean them . Mice are a problem as well ,a car left sitting is what they like .They will chew the wires . Is the battery still good ?
