1964 riviera amp light on and voltage regulator buzz

My 1964 rivieras amp light turns on and the voltage regulator buzzes.  It’s inconsistent and it seems to want to work sometimes then the next minute act up.  The voltage regulator is brand new, and I’ve replaced the wires and checked all the connections from alternator to the voltage regulator.  The only thing that seems to affect the amp light and buzzing sound is if I mess with the wires going into my ignition… anyone els out there had similar issues? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Check the firewall plug to see if it's loose, or remove it to check for corrosion. Check the wires that plug into the ignition switch, check the main and engine ground straps.

Had voltage regulator issues last month in my '65. Bought a '78 Camaro internal regulated alternator and an adapter harness to plug it up and a jumper plug for the external regulator wiring, and my problems went away. Got tired of chasing it.
