Hello all;  I just wanted to comment on electrical problems in the roadster.
Electrical problems are usually really easy to fix, but it might take 3 weeks to
find it. Two problem areas I've encountered are the amp leads and connections 
and
the connections on the back of the switch, both will gave the "everything is
dead" symptons.  FWIW        Bill 66&67 spls in N.M.
