So here we go again. I swear that the first time I started this Duster, it had no instrument cluster lighting, but somebody told me, " That mopar lite the cluster so poorly, that in the daylight it's not all that perceivable." and the speedometer was stuck at 25 mph, I had one gauge that worked...

Mainly because when you don't know a ton about what it is you are doing with wiring, the process of decision making gets all askeew. You know like anything that a person doesn't feel totally confident with. Simple solutions are not usually the first ones, you kind of sweat bullets picturing the...

So it turnout to be the ratty light socket, and that fixed everything. I started this thread writng about the instrument cluster, and gauges. I found a set of gauges at Summit Racing. Autogage ATM - 2391. They're 1.5" electrical gauges, with sending units...

Just for the purpose of learning something new, I did what GTX man told me would work, and it was exactly as he explained. Than we replaced the socket, and now I have 4 good functioning directial signals, and parking lights. I spent under 16 grand, used up what was left of...

I took moparlovers advice, and order a exact replacement from Napa. On the way home I passed Autozone, and stopped in, and they had a GM socket for cheap on the shelf. I thought, " It's cheap enough as a test tool, until the replacement arrives. Well it actually will screw right into the back of...

What great advice for the novice wiring person. Even I can do this, and I'm basically l:cheers:ost when it comes to how electricity functions. If FABO had a forum for tips, and tricks, advice like this would be priceless. Thanks.

I have it writen down someplace, so don't take my word for what I am about to write. But, my neighbor told me to cut the ( if I remember ) - black/LT green wire, than replace the fuse, and try the blinker. He say's if the rear light blinks fast, but doesn't blow the fuse, than that's the short...

I'm starting a new thread, because my lack of communication skills really has this one going in 20 directions at once. Thanks so much. The new thread will be titled " Is this my short ?" and I'll keep it brief, and to the facts. Again sorry for wasting your time with this confusion.

I've had some really awesome people (nm9stheham, Tantibus-74, iw378, Thank you. ) trying to help me with an electrical short, but because I suck at communicating, I got off subject quick. So I'm starting over, with just the facts. Is the photo below a good suspect for an...

I just want to apologize to everybody offering me help.

One thing I failed to mention, and not on purpose, is the car had issues with that light when I bought it, before I did any work ( I forgot). Since than, as we already stated, the steering column, and everything inside it has been purchase from Norm's speed shop, and replaced. So everything...

I changed the blinker relay, and found the fuse blown again, so I changed it. It's 22 degrees apparent by the ice ) I half-*** warm up the engine, and than checked the side that I know works. It's okay. Than I checked the left side, and you can hear mt super load fuel pump take a dive as the...

Just want you all to know that your ideas are appreciated. When I get a chance I have tried a lot of the above suggestions, and the issues have narrowed. The heater/defrost blower is now on line, it still seems weak though. I wish there was a way to overclock it, without burning it up. Good stuff.

Sorry, disregard this.

When I started this project. I had asked a electrical question, and in return somebody replied, " Why are you asking this question, go out, and buy a service manual." The reason I didn't is because 90% of the engine side of the firewall wiring, gets ripped out, and thrown in the scrap heap. The...

nm9stheham : Let's address the last thing first. I apologize to anybody who thought I was trying to treat them harshly. Unfortunately when you write, you can't convey emotion. So one thing may seem like another. Here at my house, it's one wise crack after another. You find the crack, and you use...

Good news, and bad on the directionals. I think it's a short in the front wiring, and here's why. 5 minutes ago I went out, and started the car. It's cold outside, so the electric choke is in it's element in weather like this. Standding outside the car, I reached my leg in, pumped the gas...

I don't even know that this is an actual instrument cluster for a Plymouth Duster, but if it is, and I intend to replace the ammeter, and temp gauge with a aftermarket set of Sun gauges. Is the wiring soldered to the circuitboard ?, and does the blue shell get chopped into to fit the gauge ? Is...

Okay there was a blow fuse. So now they are showing that they are not fuctioning properly. Which begs the question of why ? The passenger side rear works normally, The drivers side rear barely lights up, and seems fast. ( but it's hard to tell in the daylight because it's hardly noticable...

The speedometer must have self heeling properties. I just drove it, two 6 mile round trips to fill the tank a few times, also to aviod idling too much,and now it's zeroed, and functioning correctly. Maybe if I continue to do nothing, the car will install one of those hellcat engines all by itself.

Remember the old auto manual troubleshooting sections. You'd have this page that would have a column from top to bottom, that described the symptoms. Than across the top you would have a list of problem from left to right. You could cross reference several symptoms, and if you had a bunch of X's...

Cluster F**ked, appreciate others input, nothing anal please.

On a 1969 Plymouth barracuda the blinker relay hangs next to the steering column, on this car it's hidden someplace else. I just need to find it. I have a box of relays here somewhere. Oh, and I know a neighbor who's pretty good with a voltmeter, he's an older guy so I usually don't feel okay...

I'm holding onto hope that it is a fuse. Yesterday it was 20 outside with gusts up to 40, that fuse box ain't going anywhere. I first thought I screwed something up with the grounds when I did the H$ headlights off relays. But having all 4 blinkers not working is hopeful.

Got it. I was wondering if a fuse can be bad, but not look bad. I know once I found a fuse that the metal end just slid of the glass. I'll have to hunt down a pack, and replace it. That would kick ***. thanks.

No, the back up lights don't work. I for whatever reason, wanted to get rid of the seat belt interlock ( the new hemi really cleans up the engine area of wires, If you can get down to only what you need ) After messing with the interlock, and with winter quickly approaching, the need to get this...

This is how the secondary is routed. It could be even shorter, and would work better, if it was routed directly across the front of the engine, and to the relay. I did it this way because I thought it looked to out of place the other way.

Sure for some people reducing the current running through the instrument panel seems sort of ussless. I had to do this, and the answer was super simple. I learned this from that Ebooger guy from mopar action ( who I haven't many nice words for, but he is smart. ) So adapt it to your needs...

Okay. This may, or may not help. I had absolutely no time to mess with the car after posting this. Because while messing with the car, I lost the keys to my van ( which is my only transport ) Since I was bleeding brakes that day, I thought, " Oh god, they fell out of my pocket, and into the...

Dear People, My instrument panel is broken. Thanx... lol.... Oh, and have a great thanksgiving. I discribed it that way, because somebody will say, " Hey when you did this, did you forget to hook up that." There are guy here, that live, and breath...
