I was driving around today for about an hour with the heat going and went to touch the display and it was hot. Really hot and so was the lever. Anyone run into this and is it an issue?

Hello all, Due to an unfortunate series of events (including the death of my best-friend of 37 years), my 1970 Monte Carlo sat in a field for an extended amount of time (years) and has deteriorated badly. One of the issues that needs to be rectified immediately is the wiring that USED to go to the starter. Apparently a mouse (rat or squirrel?) ate this and some other wiring, in several places, under the hood. I have a part of the harness that I believe went to the starter, including the "black-wrapped" harness behind the distributor, but unfortunately, it only has two black wires (that are only a few inches long- outside the wrapping) and the remnants of an orange, a purple (violet?) and maybe a pink or brown wire... I think that most of these go to the starter, right? I bought a Haynes Manual, but it doesn't tell anything about the solenoid wiring, other than to mark them when you remove them- which is already done (only eyelets remaining). Can anyone tell me where to find a diagram (sorry but not a B&W Technical one- I get confused by them) that will help me figure out where these five wires are supposed to go? Or maybe there is a photo of a correctly wired starter available? I appreciate any and all help, as I have finally gotten my car back to my house and want desperately to hear it run again. Thanks John

Hey, I'm new to this place so this may have been answered before, but I cannot find an answer. So I think I have a bad ground somewhere on my '72 Monte. Whenever I turn on a turn signal all tail lights and interior lights start flashing. The interior lights also illuminate when I apply the brakes. Headlights aren't affected though. I've tried directly grounding the taillights to the battery, but it still happens. The body seems to be grounded alright and I'm totally clueless now. My best guess is that there is something wrong in the dashboard area. Is there a ground on the fuse box or bulkhead that could be bad because I can't seem find one? Thanks
