Remember I mentioned I had a short? I think I found it. The clock. The batt went dead in 8 hours the other day. When I pulled the cable off the batt, I hear the clock reseting. The clock was 9 hours behind. I think the contacts are sticking
Here's one for the books. Formal dash in a fusie?
- Thread starter Polaraco
- Start date
For some reason I can't post a picture all of a sudden.
My short is back. I'll have to pull the lower bezel and find it this time. No clue what it is. The car can go for a week or two and then drain the battery to stone dead in 8 hours. I have it isolated to the cars factory harness. Most everything else has been rewired. I thought it was the clock. But after pulling the plug, apparently not. There;s 4 feeds off the charging circut to the body. Plus I have two of my own feeders. I think it's something in the door light circuit now. In order to get my head liner lights to work, I have to use a relay. Seems to be an issue when I move the harness around behind the kick panel.
You guys know of any common issues with the harness's?

I may be old, but not that old. I didn't put the light in. LOL
Not really, needed to put a dent in the floor in one spot near the left front corner. Other than that No Problem.
You will need to make a real heafty trans mount though. Remember the T bars share the trans mount for strength.
Thanks for the compliment.
