    1984 C20 Fuse Panel and Harness examination

    I found a very useful feature of the Wiring Manual is the Electrical Circuit Identification for Wiring Diagrams. I printed the first 7 pages of the 1984 manual for my 1984 rig. This lists the Circuit Number, then Circuit Color and Circuit Name or Function. It really, really helped understand...

    1984 C20 Fuse Panel and Harness examination

    There are 2 wires that are not part of the harnesses, but are single wires coming from the center of the panel/bulkhead. 1 wire is black/white strip and it has a connector that follows the driver's door. I followed it and it goes to the set of connectors ABOVE the panel with a box with tabs...

    Fuseblock / Bulkhead Pics and Comparisons

    Interesting. (to quote Spock) I mentioned earlier that the wiring diagrams for 1984, have only ONE flasher (lower right) in the diagram. I am going to check the 81 diagram..........Found a 1982 diagram and it has 2 flashers on the panel Getting more pictures of actual panels would be great...

    1984 C20 Fuse Panel and Harness examination

    This dissection of the fuse panel and its harness will start with defining some common terminology in order to maintain some consistency within the thread and possibly with other threads. Wiring diagrams become vital in understanding the fuse panel and the actual harness because of the labeling...

    Junction block power

    It gets its power from the firewall bulkhead connector, circuit 2-RED. Circuit 2-RED comes from the battery to the firewall connector and then inside and Circuit 2 comes back out and goes to that HVAC junction block would help to know the year you are talking about

    1984 C20 Fuse Panel and Harness examination

    I have a 1984 K1500 and in dealing with the fuse panel and its wires, it is difficult locate and/or identify the wires when they are installed in the truck. Therefore I acquired a 1984 C20 fuse panel and its immediate wire harness which I can layout on a table, identify and label its wire...

    Check Engine light not lighting up

    I wouldn't trust a corroded distributor cap. When I was a teenager, we had a 64 mustang with a I6. Several guys diagnosed it internal timing damage since it mis-fired over and over again. So Dad decided to re-build the engine. It needed it But once it was put back in the same mis-fires...

    90-91 VSS Electronic Gauge Cluster to Analog Speedo Models

    In my build thread I cover searching for gauges on my LS swap (see signature for link) since my NP241c generates a VSS signal and not a cable. I bought a Intellitronix digital gauge set, but didn't like it not working, so I found a 90-91 Suburban gauge cluster off of ebay. Its speedo runs off...

    Transfer Case Shifter Rebuild Help Needed

    thanks HR and bucket Probably a 208. This came from a auto tranny to sm465 4 speed conversion vehicle I bought. I sold the 465 and the transfercase (probably the 208) since I was putting in a LS, NV4500 and a np241c all into a 1984 K1500 So the 4wd shifter is probably from the np208 era. I...
