TICKTICKTICKTICKTIII… no just kidding..   I went to start up the 85 camaro so I opened the door (noted the power was still on), turn the key halfway (noted the engine light and seat belt lights were bright), turned the key fully and nothing.  All power is gone, totally.  I left it for a few hours and then came back and the power was back on.  I put the drivers seat and lock cylinder back in (figured maybe a circuit wasn’t completing because one or both of those were out).  Tried it again and again the power completely died.   Went out a few minutes ago, tried it, lost power.  Hooked up my jump starter and put it to 200Amp startfast and the power was back on immediately.  Tried to start and all I got was a bunch of ticking and the fan trying to move but not getting far, maybe a quarter of a rotation if that.  I kept doing it and eventually lost power WITH the jump starter hooked up.   I tried the jump starter thing because the battery was only showing 5.8 or something like that.  Now I can’t figure it out.  It was fine for a long time until I took the drivers seat out and started messing with the drivers door.  Can you think of anything?   Thanks, JB
