okay i have a weird electrical problem that comes back every now and than since i swapped to the DE.

basically what happens is when i got to the car, right when it actually put the key to the start position, it makes a slight sound and cuts off power to the entire car.

no lights no 4-ways no power period. battery is good.

the only way to get power back to the car is remove all the fueses from the kick panel or not all but most power related fuses from the car and than put them back in to get power back to the entire car. and if you try to start the car again, the whole entire car loses power again.

so i'm not sure where to start to diagnose the problem, can anyone help me out with this.

89 coupe swapped for DE.

TIA

With you car running wiggle all wiring and connectors that you unhooked/modified/ etc... Also in the main fuse relay box under the hood, try wiggling all of the fusable links. If that doesn't do anything let me know and I can run u threw checking the ignition system. I had a lock cylinder on a Ford one time that would energize the column threw the ignition switch, did the same thing, took me a while to figure out but the insurance payed for it, lol.
