    Dakota Digital install with American Autowire harness- ETA adding TCI 4L60E control to the install

    DD makes a module for the Holley Sniper? I wasn't aware. I went with the Pro Flo 4 almost completely because I knew they made a module for it. If I knew they made one for the Sniper, things may have been different

    Gas Gauge Problems Continue

    I replaced both my senders and tanks as well a few years back when I switched to efi. The tanks are meant for efi, and have baffles in them to keep sloshing to a minimum, but my cheap, tempo gauge still bounces around a bit. I think it has more to do with the gauge itself. The expensive, nice...

    Steering Column Advice

    The turn signal switch has some little springs in it that are responsible for returning the turn signal lever back to the middle position. If one of those is broke, the lever won't return. I know they make replacement springs. The switch itself is not all that expensive and not crazy difficult...

    Did that motor wire up to your existing wiring and switch, or did you have to retro everything?

    Wiring Harness journal

    Couple weeks more gone by, and getting close to buttoned up. I've taken her for a few spins around the block. I thought it'd be fun to list a few of the screw ups I made during the process - I had the fuel pump power wires wired into the sending units. Kept popping a fuse every time I turned...

    Brights pop fuse

    A few pics of the manual that came with the harness, as well as the fuse box mounted. The fuse labeled Headlights is the one that kept popping previously, before I moved the high beam indicator wire that was shorting

    Brights pop fuse

    Very nice article, definitely clears up questions on how that works. Since the headlights aren't running through a fuse, what's the purpose of the headlight fuse?

    The terminations were all pre-made on the wiring harness. Everything works correctly now after isolating that high beam indicator wire

    Brights pop fuse

    Found it. I left all the Guage cluster wires disconnected and pulled the gauges fuse, because I have a set of Digital Dakota gauges I'm installing. The high beam indicator is grouped with those and was shorting against another wire. Separated it, and headlights work!

    So a little more info - the fuse does, in fact, pop when trying tonuse high beams, even if the headlights are disconnected

    Brights pop fuse

    Hello. I completed a wiring harness on my 1977 K10, and an now trying to figure out all the little small mistakes and gremlins I made during. I got the fuel pumps handled, but am now having an issue with the headlights. Both headlights are new. The headlight sockets are new, as is the dimmer...
