Re: IML: Dipping Ammeter - 1972

In some years the individual window motors also have circuit breakers 
of their own. I think my '65 is like that. A bad window motor of this 
type could cause the same problem. Although, I don't think one shorted 
window motor would be enough draw to kill the car engine unless 
possibly this problem was combined with corroded electrical connections 
elsewhere.

Kenyon,

 I too agree with Dick. I had the same problem with one of my 64's.. it 
was a stuck set motor switch. The fact it doesn't do it when the key is 
off is an indication it is something that is only powered with the key 
on. Try to listen for a clicking circuit breaker with the key on but 
engine not running. One you find the breaker you will know what it 
powers. From there see what switches are powered by that breaker. You 
could have a stuck switch or a shorted wire. Good luck & keep us 
informed
