Looking for advise on electrical problem. Had trouble with the voltage regulator, replaced it with a nos and still no power anywhere in the car. No lights, horn dash lights etc. It's like there is fuse blown somewhere. Any leads much appreciated.
Thanks,
Gene.

Are you getting any output from your generator?

Have you checked your battery cables and grounds to make sure that the connections are "bright and tight"?  And that would include both ground connections: to the body and to the engine.

Have you tried using a simple test light and -- starting at the battery --  worked along the wires to see just how far you're getting power?  Is there power at the voltage regulator, for instance?

Is power lead that is supposed to be on horn relay connected? Check wiring diagram for main power paths.
