Need Wiring/Electrical Help in Los Angeles - Early Bronco '73 with Painless Harness

[paddy_curr]

Hi all, new to community and the forums, hope I'm posting this in the right place.

Admittedly, I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to the ins-and-outs of classic cars, and cars in general. The original, 50-year old harness was chewed to hell, and I wanted to install a radio in my early Bronco, so I bought a Painless wiring harness and had go at doing the job myself. Turns out I bit off a bit more than I could chew.

I finished the rewiring, laid a handful of simple ground wires, reconnected the battery and climbed in the cab, turned the key and... nothing. NOTHING. No click, not fire, no firing. NOTHING.

Is there ANYONE in SoCal (I'm in Los Angeles, mid city by the Grove) who'd wanna make a few bucks and come over and help me troubleshoot this wiring calamity I find myself in. Maybe (hopefully) it's a really simple solution but this is far above my level of experience.

Can anyone help? Or point me in the direction of a mechanic who can handle some wiring troubleshooting.

Thank you Bronco family!
Paddy

My buddy recently took his to Shane in La Jolla ( Down by San Diego). He was real happy with his work. Here is his contact if you would like to check him out.
