You should only have power at terminal 50 on the starter when your ignition switch is in the `START` position.

In this diagram power goes from Battery positive to stater 30 to regulator B+ to headlight switch 30 to fusebox to ignition switch 30; and then thru switch back to starter 50. Check for a wire loose or not connected along that line. |

| Yes, you should always have power at the fuseblock, if your battery is charged and connected. If you have no power there follow the wires that I listed in the first post starting at the battery and moving towards the fuse block along the wiring harness. I sounds like a wire has become disconnected somewhere along the path. On my `63 there are actually 2 wires that connect at regulator B+; 1 comes up from the starter, the other is in the wiring harness that runs up in the roof to the fuseblock. If either of these aren`t connected you will have no power at the headlight switch, fuseblock or ignition switch. |
