    fuse blown?

    So I think I blew a fuse this AM. I started my car (70 Sport Fury) with my radio on and the iPod running and I heard a slight click. After that my fuel and temp gauges stopped working, and I don't think my turn signals work either. Everything worked up until that point. Because I'm going to...

    stupid turn signal switch...grr...

    Well, fried another turn signal switch on the way to work today. I guess the electric shop didn't do a very good job in diagnosing the issue after the 1st one fried (diagnosis: switch just went bad). I'll be taking it back in for them to rectify the problem. At least it was a repop switch I...

    which turn signal flasher?

    So I'm pretty sure I need a new turn signal flasher. I am unsure what I need for my car. 1970 Sport Fury with turn signals mounted in the hood. Does anyone know? Is it 2932877? Essentially my turn signal switch still works. But the don't flash well and the great under dash "click" when you...

    I love reproduction parts #2....

    So, got my turn signal switch installed. Looked good, worked good. Then as I got the steering wheel on and finally took it for a drive, my joy turned to annoy. Basically, the canceling ring/prong keeps hitting the canceling cams, so whenever I make a turn past each canceling point, it hits...

    odd turn signal happenings

    So all my directionals/turn signals work properly. Front lower. Hood markers. Right and left rear with my headlights OFF. However, when I turn my headlights on, the right rear turn signal blinks oddly. Normally on the 70 Fury III/SF, the first and third lights blink in unison. However...

    Another wiring question

    OK, car is a 70 SF still. These three wires (purple, green, white) come out of the steering column wiring. I’m looking at my colored chart and I’m seeing nothing. I think at this point I have proven I can’t read these things worth a damn. Anyone have an idea to what this should be connected...

    ballast resistors

    As it was brought up in another thread, I figure I should ask. Currently, the ballast resistor is bypassed on my car. I'm not sure why the previous owner did this, but it is. Should I leave it as it is, or reconnect back to the ballast resistor? I'd rather not have any issues down the road...

    wiring question

    OK, so I have most of the radio wired up. Couple questions: 1) The red wire should be connected to an Ignition switched circuit that is fused. Do I have it hooked to the correct wire in the harness (re with white stripe). Or is there a different wire I should be using. Gary reaffixed the...

    stupid question - checking electrical

    OK, so I'm making my first foray into the seemingly-not fun area of automotive electrical systems. I have my dash completely out of the car. I have repainted everything, put in a new wiper switch and washer switch. NOS ashtray assembly will be installed. I have completely cleaned up the...

    70 Sport Fury wiring question

    Ok, so I'm wiring the dash I'm on the washer button (2 prongs) and wiper switch (2 prongs remain). I have 2 brown wires and a separate white wire. What wire goes to what prong? Thanks

    turn signal issue

    On my way to work today, I turn on my turn signal and both in hood signals light up at the same time. Once I got to work, I checked to see what is going on. In the back, turn signal works fine--turn on left, left lights; same with the other side. However, with the directional on either right...

    Reverse lights on while in drive

    I'm guessing this is an easy diagnosis, but I'd like to prevent my reverse lights from being on when the transmission is in the drive position. It's a 1970 Sport Fury. Any thoughts on what might be causing this? Thanks

    1970 Sport Fury headlight issue

    We're having an issue with the headlights on the '70 Sport Fury I'm buying. Here's the issue: Yeah, so about the headlights... they actually work so well that they don't shut off! If I have the battery disconnected for a while, they'll work normally for about 30 seconds, turning on an off with...
