Default And the Porschey sings no more...

Ok well i was driving home tonight from work. Started the car flipped up the lights. I got to the intersection and the ligts didnt go up. So i flipped the switch back down to try and get them to go up. Sure enough the car died right as i flipped the switch and wouldnt come back on. Any thoughts? Good DME relay, good fuel pump fuse, tach is moving, sensors are fine... any thoughts?

Grounds have finaly oxidized thier way back to the stone age. Too much draw thru corroded contacts.

It's my seat of the pants opinion and I'm sticking with it.
