Thanks, how would these apply or effect when it occurs with engine off or running. Additionally, wouldn't more than just turn signal indicator lights and oil pressure idiot light.

I took the column completely out of the equation and jumped the horn switch post at the relay and got the same result. I disconnected both harnesses at the base of the steering column before jumping. I will add another ground to the dash cluster to see what we happens.

I know, this scenario has been difficult to isolate. I'm about to just put it back together and run it. I've been studying the schematic and wondering if there could be some back feed to the dash cluster through the light switch since it appears to be powered from the same fuse port. None of...

Replaced old steering wheel and still had the issue, never noticed it before. disconnected the steering column wiring harnesses and jumped the horn wire leading to horn relay and had same issue. To me this would indicate that nothing in the column is causing the problem. Replaced the horn relay...

I don't thank so. I'm going to put the original wheel back on to see if the problem continues.

Not sure what you mean. The column has a contact point that touches a brass ring on the steering wheel adapter. The adapter has a wire that goes to the horn button.

Removed just the steering wheel and horn. Didn't touch the column or any wiring except for the horn.

Hello All, I installed a Grant 870 steering wheel with mounting kit on my automatic column shift 1974 plymouth duster. Everything looks good and the horn works. However, when I hit the horn both turn signal indicator and oil pressure idiot light flicker on. Never had this issue before. Any idea...

Thanks Mattax, I appreciate your assistance and patience, my knowledge and experience is very limited. I did some test light checks at the bulkhead and came up with the following: I hit each male and female connector on the center connector (disconnected) slots J to R, J male no light, J...

Thanks Mattax, In example 2 from your link it shows internal short at alternator, would the vehicle have to be running for that to cause the fusible link to burn? Is there a simple way to check the field terminals to the main power out or alternator body to determine if it is internally shorted...

Hello All, Did some more tracing and have come up with the following. Remember I found continuity from the black lead off the ammeter to ground. I have the service manual and started tracing the harness. I've found that block 7 & 8 in the fuse block seem to be troublesome. First block 8 and the...

Hello All, While replacing the ammeter I decided to clean everything up in the instrument cluster. After I reassembled the cluster I did some continuity checks on the cluster body and cluster board had continuity to the cluster body. Removed a couple of cluster lights and continuity gone...

A couple weeks ago I had the 1974 Duster out to a cruise-in. On the trip home I lost all electrical power. I made a quick check of all the connectors back to the bulk head and everything seemed in order. Didn’t have the tools to dig further so I called a tow truck. Once home I started some...

Thanks 67Dart273, what happens if you cut the light blue out? If you eliminate the ICU how would you or what would you link the light blue to? Again, thanks. v/r Ron

OK, what about the voltage regulator and charging system, does any of the wires from the ICU do anything with the voltage regulator?

Thanks for the responses, so, I will not have to run a lead to the coil because the brn already goes to the coil, just splice the brn and dk blue? What about the ground if I eliminate the icu?

My 74 service manual schematic shows the brn wire going to the (+) coil, guess that where I get confused, thanks.

Hello All, I know, not another hei tread, I could not gain a clear picture from some of the post I found. Working on a 74 Duster and trying to set up a ready-to-run hei distributor. I was getting ready to splice the brown and dk blue wire at the resistor and started to get confused. Once I...

Do you know if the 2 models I listed would be an improvement over regular bulbs or would they be consistent with what their performance?

Hello All, I've been looking at affordable options to replace my headlights and was thinking about these two options, PHILIPS H6024CV or WAGNER H6024BL. To me, these look like plug and play replacements but some of the threads I've read led me to post the following question.Will either one of...

Well, I'm a little surprised that no one on here has chimed with the identity unknown culprit. This is a first.

Sorry, forgot to post this location, here it is.

yes it mounted on the inner fender in the area below the washer bottle and master cylinder. I assume it is for the starter cables. The car was a slant6 car not sure if the v8's had them.

Found it, here is a pic, does anyone know what it is and where i can get another one if it is needed?

Roger that, thanks. I thought so but I've heard chatter about the 8mm vs 7mm and wanted to double check.

Anyone out there running magnum spark plug wires with their hei distributors or does anyone think that they wouldn't work very well with geo and why?

Yeah, I see yours is missing too...when I find a source I'll let you know so you can get one to. :-)

The starter relay is mounted next to / beside the battery and is an electronic device. The item I'm talking about is some form of bracket.

Hello all, I know this is a stab in the dark! I'm working on a 74 Duster that was a /6 car. I There was a funny looking bracket/strap mounted on the inner fender below the master cylinder. I lost the thing during my current project and trying to determine what it was for and if I should worry...

So, has anyone eliminated this thing, if so, did it create any other problems? I'd like to get it off my inner fender if possible.
