[Tigers] strange problem

[Steve Laifman]

 Jim,

Having the "older" Tiger (B9472289) I can offer some gratuitous advice.

    * First, disconnect the cable at the battery. (A quick-disconnect
      racing connector is available)
    * This should solve the problem.
    * Even if you do not do all your driving at night, you will be safer
      at daylight with the lights on.
    * A VERY heavy duty relay (starter relay?) can be used, if the
      ignition switch still works.

(; -)

Sound like the "starter ignition & accessories switch" (where the key 
goes), or a "short".

Check TigersUnited.com for the colored electric wiring diagram to check 
the current flow.  You either have a short (or a long). which needs to 
be checked out for correct wiring and functioning switch/relays.
