    Low Hump to High Hump Conversion

    Well gaining on her. Haven't posted in a while. Found a hump. Was a little more deteriorated than I was looking for but come out well. Got finish paint on the cab today. I'm going to attach some pics of Bessie to this day still hauling wood.

    Dash/radio lose power on ignition wires

As far as the voltage readings being low- if you're using a digital multi-meter and it has automatic range , it will show a fluctuating reading in mv with an open circuit unless it's a rather high quality meter. If you're using old school meter movement (with a needle) it will show...

    Could be, and probably is a separate gremlin that just decided to show it's ugly little head but that wouldn't have anything to do with your electrical issue. It was ok before you changed the switch, back track and make sure you didn't screw something up. You may have had a solenoid problem...

    The low voltage readings just point to a poor connection, Did you straighten the rod ? and make sure the switch was being pushed all the way? You could have a bad ground- like a braided body ground strap.

    Which Mirrors are BEST quality?

    Get the Stainless Don't know if it's ok to name suppliers here cause I'm new here so if a moderator, or if someone knows That would be appreciated. There are a lot of places but prices vary greatly so you have to shop. There aren't really that many manufacturers, but a lot of distributors.

    Low Hump to High Hump Conversion
