So, the VR malfunctioned causing the alternator to burn up it's wire at the bulk head. At the same time the headlight switch had so much corrosion that it would not allow current to the dimmer switch or to the headlights. The VR was a chinese made one from oreilly's and had maybe 40 miles on...

The black wire that was burnt up is the same gauge wire as the black wire on the alternator. Goes through the wire loom and is wrapped up so I have not traced it to see if it's the same one.

I had it turned to the 200. Tried it at the 2K also but neither worked. Maybe it's the machine. The other is a vantage MT2400.

the smaller one I can't seem to get a reading out of on any of the ohm settings. I don't see in the menu on the vantage where to set it to read ohms. So i just put it on multimeter and checked it that way and got zero's until I wiggled the bulk head. I did say I'm not electrically inclined...

Well, I inherited that mess. In order to replace that mess I need an entire wiring harness. That is in the plans but at this moment I don't need the car to be undrivable. So I would like to fix the problem at hand. Would the voltage regulator going bad and allowing 20 amps through the...

Ok, so I couldn't get the ohm reader to work so I hooked up my vantage multimeter . First I couldn't get anything to work using the starter as it's really tight in there. So I hooked it up to the negative on the battery cable and the black wire for the alternator. Zero resistance, but when I...

Ok, so with the ohm meter hooked up do I turn the vehicle to the on position? Or just turn on the headlight switch? What is supplying power while I'm looking for the resistance? I'm assuming there should be a resistance measurement when this is hooked up like this when I wiggle the bulkhead...

So on the headlight switch. engine off, lights off. Black wire shows 12.20 and two pinks show 12.20 engine off lights turned on I get 11.2 on the double pinks,12 on the black,10 on the brown engine on lights on I get 12 on the black, 10.5 on the pinks, 10.5 on the brown and 10.5 on the yellow...

I"m getting 20 at the larger stud on the alternator. would that mean I have yet another bad voltage regulator? That wouldn't be the reason my headlights aren't working would it though?

yeah that's what I thought I read. Was surprised. That's at the main stud on the alt. I figured it was supposed to be at 13amps or so from the battery right?

Not sure of the brand. As it appears it is only wired into the one set of wires in the picture. The red/black and green/white combo's come from the relay and control the halo. The main headlight section is the same lines that would go to a regular headlight 3 prong.

I'll snap a few pics of the system. Pretty basic. Plug in system. Has one relay that appears to be for the halo part of the system. Give me a few.

I don't post here often although I scroll through threads daily. Maybe yal can help me out a little. 67 barracuda. I had a halo kit put into the car. Worked fine for maybe 100 miles. Now the lights won't come on. Halo's work fine, parking lights work fine tail lights work fine blinkers...

I was just waiting for someone to way this. Yes, aftermarket gauge on dash. Everything on this car has been modified during it's life.

same part at autozone or oreilly's? That's all that is open on Sundays here. I prefer Napa.

Where is the best place to get a switch?

Had battery tested at parts store, they said it is good. Got it on charge right now. Optima red top gauge was showing 12V. but dropped while running. I had led halo's installed. They have worked great for around 500 miles. The actual lights won't turn on which makes me think it's the...

67 barracuda. 400 727 started fine. Drove to job site. Went to start it at end of day and it hesitated but started. Turn lights on and they flicker badly. I push on the headlight switch sideways and the lights turn off. They flicker back and forth when messing with the switch. Running...

There are a few more instructions here. http://www.cuda-challenger.com/cc/index.php?topic=87808.0

Thanks alot. Thats what I needed to know.

I can find wiring harness's for several 70's a-bodie's and I thought that I would ask if they are compatible with the 70's e-bodies. I am having a hard time finding a wiring harness for my 70 barracuda. Any other cars that are compatible? thanks
