Here's the deal, it's a friend of mines car, B body, 1970 Coronet. He just finished putting it together. All the electrical works fine, headlights, tail lights turn signals, etc. except the indicators for the indicators in the dash for the turn signals and emergency flashers. They work outside...

Well, checked there was power to the relay hot side, all good. Pulled the lights on, stuck my hand under the dash at the ammeter, felt around and the lights came on car started right up! Now I'm thinking, WTF?? I put a good squeeze on EVERYTHING and was very careful assembling the harness, etc...

On the bright side, that's probably a good thing. Yes, all harness' are new including the dash. Guess I'll work my way backwards!! Thanks for all the help! And, I did not by bypass the ammeter, I figured with all new harness' and relays on the headlights and top I wouldn't worry. Again, thanks...

How does one go about trouble shooting an ignition switch? 1966 Dart Gt. Everything was fine, went on vacation and when I came home, nothing? No power whatsoever. No lights, no power in the car, nothing!!! Checked the battery and terminals, all good there. After several turns of the key...

I had a square back rewound at the local motor shop to 90 amps, cleaned and painted it for less than $100.00

Damn! Thanks again 67dart273. Appreciate it!

Next question please. Hooking up my gauges, says to tie into the existing light circuit. Frm the map light, should I tie into the yellow or the pink for the feed? I'm in the pink right now, gauge lights only come on when the ignition is on, they don't come on with the dash lights when the...

Thanks kit

Getting ready to put the carpet in. Can someone tell me the correct routing for the console harness? Seems like I have way too much! Thanks

Thanks. That's great information. I will look around and see if I can get that done. I would like better grounds, now I have a better idea how to do it. I appreciate your help!

I tried that on the 71 and couldn't seem to get it to solder? Actually, I tried to put a Bead of solder from the socket to the case.

Done! Bad ground on the socket and the new harness' had some wires out of place but all good. I pulled the light housing, got a sharp pointed punch and dimpled it up between the socket and the housing! Thanks again to all that chimed in! Jim

On the bright side (pun intended) headlights/brights work great! I got the relay kit from rob. Awesome!!

Checked both bulbs, I believe they're 1157 amber. They're good. Checked ground. Removed the housing and used the Dremel to scuff a small spot on the housing and bumper. I am getting power, but only to one pin per socket, and it only fires the pass. side.? But there is power on the driver side...

I do not understand how the two pin bulbs work? I pulled the bulbs and have power to one pin in each socket. Passenger side is lit, driver side is not.?, Brake lights are working now. License plate, back up, tail lights are all fine. Just that pesky running lights/blinkers!!Thanks for your help...

So I took another look at the 10 pin connector and sure enough, It matches the old harness, but not the new one. So, I pulled all the pins, matched by color according to the "real" manual and what do you know. Everything is working now except the flashers and one park light? Traced the flasher...

Well I changed the position of the yellow/white in the bulkhead connector to the U position, YAY!! Power to the parking lights. (sort of) One is lit, one is not? The one that isn't has power to only one side in the socket? My head hurts. I think it's miller time. Thanks to everyone that chimed in!!

Thanks 67dart273 I'm gonna jump right in. I'll let you know the outcome!!

Okay. So, pulled the bulkhead connectors in the engine and sure enough one is in U and one is in V. Could it be that simple? The manual (real manual) does show both going through U? If I move the switch side to U, what's the worst that could happen? Like I said, not an electrical kind of guy...

Last dumb question. If I follow the yellow w tracer out of the park lights to the bulkhead connector, why does it enter at U why doesn't it follow U on the other side???

Ok. Double checked the harness and steering column connections. All good. Started at the bulb sockets with a tester and worked my way backwards. Nothing at the sockets, the plugs, the bulkhead connector. I do have power to the light green in the TS switch which I believe feeds the park lights in...

Thanks you all. Have the diagrams. And like I said, ALL HARNESS' are new except the turn signal switch. Did Shake me up a bit when the horn went off. Nothing to do but smile.

New flasher. Thanks.

New harness' from headlights to taillights, everything is hooked up/ grounded. Running a charger at 10 amps for power. Have relays installed in the headlights and convertible top. Here's what's not working. Parking lights, turn signals, stop light and when I turn on the left blinker, the horn...

I think if you went to the electrical forum and searched it, you'd find a lot of info in that subject. I'm curious to see what you find out. Good luck

Sounds good in theory! I did not bypass the ammeter but ran a #10 from the alternator to the starter relay

Thanks Tony. I know you have a lot parts in this jalopy!

This is my first try, got bored I guess. Kurt and a host of others have been a great source of knowledge and encouragement. I'm pretty happy the way it's turning out. Hope to have it on the road soon! Jim

Thanks!
