    Courtesy Light Timer and interior lights

    I'll start off the car is a 1976 Duster but the entire car was rewired using an AAW kit. I have the dome light and the door switches wired up and working correctly. I've been pondering the idea of adding in the courtesy lights. I have the ashtray light, column light, glove box light and also...

    Brake Switch Wiring

    That's what I typically do but could not understand the schematic as the factory service manual doesn't make mention of where the white or red connector's on the factory harness go. I guess I got fooled about positive and negative hookup and the fact it's a switch so it's only ground open vs...

    Full Re-Wiring Job - Help, Ideas & Sources needed.

    First off it's a huge job. I've done it. Second, no kit exists that has everything you need in it. Some will say they do, not a single one does. So expect to buy more wire, connectors, heat shrink, etc. BUY GOOD WIRE! GXL or TXL wire only. Don't buy cheap PVC coated wire unless you want...

    tail light socket question

    When I rewired my car I was unable to find the rear sockets. I did however find the pins to remake the sockets using better wire. Ron Francis wiring has the pins in order to do this. Riddler

    Looking for battery recommendations.

    I'm going to charge it up once again and see. I had it at 12.8v but now the shop says its dead. Of course he tried to charge it with a standard charger so I'm sure he fried it. I'll try to charge it again and see how it goes. But it does have a drain within it. Riddler

    Looking for battery recommendations.

    Problem is Mopar batteries are lead acid batteries and I need an AGM type that is sealed since it's in my trunk. I need to stay legal. Riddler

    Looking for battery recommendations.

    I've got a 34/78 Optima red top that seems to discharge whether it's hooked to the car or not. Before I decide to just replace it with another red top. Has to be a sealed type as it's in my trunk. Dimensions are a plus since I have an existing battery tray. Thanks, Riddler

    SXL? GXL? TXL?

    Yeah of course.... I used WireBarn to purchase wire as he's located in Detroit, MI area which is close to me so I saved on shipping. His wire is really nice as well and he sells on ebay. I then used a few other online sources for wire, mostly the larger stuff, I'll get the links after work...

    SXL? GXL? TXL?

    Well TXL and GXL are both commonly used by OEM's. I believe I've read that most of the Euro brands favour the GXL with the domestics favouring the TXL. Here's a good read about the differences. Wire Selection Guide, GXL Wire, TXL Wire, UL 1015, MTW I used the cheaper GXL wire. Only...

    76 duster wiring diagram

    The problem your having is the 1976 Dusters were only made for just a few months. There was only abut 32,000 roughly made. Your best bet is to find a wiring diagram for 1975 as nothing has changed wiring wise. I even used a 1973 wiring diagram when I rewired my car this year. Riddler

    Aftermarket wiring kits...

    If your buying wire, look up the Wire Barn. Buy only TXL or GXL wire. Both are super great and won't get stiff and break like PVC covered wire will. Riddler

    Aftermarket wiring kits...

    I'm using an American Autowire Power Plus 20 kit. Pretty much the same as the Highway 22 kit. Great wire and such, however none of the black ground wire comes with the kit. The kit alone is around $400-500 depending on number of circuits and such. Then plan to drop another 400-500+ for...

    Wiring Diagram - A body column to GM aftermarket?

    Found the purple wire. It was located in another part of the kit. It runs from the starter solenoid to the neutral safety switch and then to the yellow wire off the column. @67Dart273 When you say jumper the brown wire (IGN 2) over to the dark blue wire (IGN 1). Am I just tapping these...

    Dome light circuit and ignition buzzer.

    I'm working on rewiring my 76 Duster with an American Autowire Power Plus 20 kit. I'm fairly certain I have the dome light wiring correct with the door pins. The ground wire from both door pins gets spliced to the ground wire from the headlight switch. Is this correct? I used this diagram...

    Wiring Diagram - A body column to GM aftermarket?

    I have everything understood as I matched up the wires at the column. However I don't have z Start (violet) wire in my AW wiring. Does this wire have to be added from the clutch safety switch? Riddler

    Wow your amazing. I've got a 76 Duster. The GM connector has some wires in it and I want to make sure it's wired correctly. I'm not planning to use a ballist resistor as I'm running a 6.1L hemi.

    Wiring Diagram - A body column to GM aftermarket?

    My wiring kit is American autowire Power Plus 20. It has the wiring for the turn signals, hazards, etc plus horn and brake switch. I'm using a stick column with ignition and the harness says to cut off the stock connector and use the GM one. But doesn't say what goes where. Riddler

    1973 Windshield Wiper arms/pivot & Wiring Tech

    You'll have to find a pair from someone parting a car out. The wiper pivots are not repop'd. I've been able to save a few sets that are 100% locked up. I soak them in a few different chemicals, I also drill and add grease points to them. There are kits available to add the grease fittings as...
