 Posted: Thu Aug 17, 2017 6:18 am Post subject: Fat Red Wires... |
 |
|
So I went to start Olive yesterday for the first time in 2 months since I got her home and when I went to turn the key....nada. Like, zero. No dash lights no nothing. The battery is fresh and all the leads and grounds are tight. I did swap the relay panel out for an NOS unit I had and when doing so the only wires I didn't pay attention to are the 3 plugs with the fat red wires that run directly from the + battery post. I assumed it wouldn't matter because they all run directly to the relay panel...no ? It is the only thing I can think of that could possibly be the problem. I'm a bit stumped.

When you re-do loads of stuff, chances are you're going to mess it up worse than it was

No it was just 2 wires that were switched. It was easy to trace.
Put everything back together ,put the steering wheel on and a battery in and started her up no problem. I will put a temp permit on this Saturday and go cruising around town for the first time since she was liberated to the land of the free.
