    Help with Electrical Gremlin

    @barracudadave67 I only used the rear passenger regulator. I've just kept everything else, mostly in your original packaging from 2015. Funny enough, cleaning the garage yesterday and snapped a picture.

    Help with Electrical Gremlin

    Thank you for the help, everyone. There appears to have been two different problems—electrical and tuning. The electrical seems to be resolved by replacing a broken eye connector and tightening the starter cable. The symptoms of shortening out when starting has not reoccurred. I was...
