    1974 Duster Ammeter Bypass

    And yes, the Orange wire I've got figured out too. Again, just a matter of figuring out where those double wires are going. I mean I must be overlooking something very simple.

    1974 Duster Ammeter Bypass

    Yes, I have been able to deduce most of the wiring. The ones pictured are what's left and what's throwing me is that I have double wires coming out of the round connector. I have more wires coming out of the connector than I have left to hook up. Lol. The diagram you posted is showing the red...

    1974 Duster Ammeter Bypass

    OK. So what I have pictured is the factory wiring coming from the barrel connector for the circuit board on back of instrument cluster. Bottom image. The other is the Painless harness. The two red wires go into one connector in the barrel as does the two black wires. Wiring diagram does NOT...

    PO installed the bulk of the harness. I'm buttoning up what was left. So here's to hoping PO got front and rear light sections correct.

    1974 Duster Ammeter Bypass

    I'm bo no means a wiring guru. I've been turning wrenches professionally for 15 years. But this is confounding. And chiefly because the information provided by Painless is weak at best. But you guys are the brains here! So here I am. I'll figure out what wire goes where and I'll be back if I run...

    1974 Duster Ammeter Bypass

    That's definitely something I had in mind. I'm fairly confident everything is good, but I definitely want to test first. I don't even know what to ask at this point. Haha. If I had a diagram of the Painless harness, or some table that tells you what wire goes where from th Painless harness to...

    1. Yes, the wiring harness eliminated the bulkhead connector so we're good there. I do believe I have starting/charging system wired correctly. At this point its just a matter of writing up the instrument cluster and headlight switch. Painless instructions get much more vague after the...

    PS. I have an Equus voltmeter ready to wire up.

    1974 Duster Ammeter Bypass

    OK. I searched previous forums and was unable to find any threads addressing this. Perhaps I missed one and if I did, my apologies. So I'm wiring up the Painless Mopar wiring harness #10127. I am needing to know how to bypass the ammeter. The Mopar Painless guide was apparently written by...

    Single Field Alternator Help

    Thats good to know. I had no idea there was a difference but I know now. Will post pics soon. Previous owner probably threw one in without knowing what he was doing. That's likely seeing some of the other work that was done to this car that I've been correcting.

    Single Field Alternator Help

    Hello! So, I've been working on my '74 Duster, getting Painless Wiring harness hooked up. I have a single field alternator, and an electronic voltage regulator. I've search high and low for info on this but can't find any. Is this possible, or do I need to buy a mechanical voltage regulator?

    I've seen 'em less. I miss out on them. If no one wants to offer one at that price, that's fine. That's the way markets work.
