[T3] Complete Electrical Shutdown


I was sitting at a stoplight yesterday when my 73 Square's (AT/FI - Stock)
electrical system just died.  I have nothing when I try to start it now.
When I have the key in the on position it appears as if the fuel sending
unit works since my gas gauge has a reading, and the dash lights are on very
very faintly.  The door light is also on extremely faintly when the door is
open.  Other then that I have no power to start it or anything.  None of the
fuses look bad either.  Oh yea, one other thing, when the key is in the off
position and I try to use the hazard lights, the relay clicks extremely
fast, but I dont get any lights.  If I then turn it to the on position, the
clicking stops.
I had had a problem before with the same symptoms, when my car wouldn't
start and there was no electrical power, but it 'fixed itself' in about 2
hours time.  This time I didn't get as lucky.
