65 Dart Wagon Conversion to a Sedan Delivery
I decided to see if I could somehow route the Dakota Digital oil pressure and water temperature harnesses from the engine compartment into the passenger compartment without drilling any new holes in the firewall. The Oil and Water Temperature sending units are grounded at the block snd connected by 2 or more wires to the main module, which I shall install on the driver’s kick panel (the only real place it can be mounted under the dash. Water temperature on the left; oll pressure sending unit on the right
I decided I can use 2 of the Z Bar plste mounting holes in the lower area of the driver’s inner fender. Because these harnesses have their own rubber outer protective sheathq, it should be no problem routing in this manner. As seen looking under the fender.
I had previously decided to eliminate the A Body emergency brake handle and cable setup, i could route the the OIl Pressure and Water Temp cables where the old E Brske cable passed through the firewall between the inner and outer fender. If I decide I need an emergency brake, i have sn EStopp knock-off electronic emergency brake setup I will install.
The speedometer cable is installed with a stock OEM grommet through the firewall in the stock location. I had Texas Electronics build a new cable with a stock-style cable end to fit the A500’s speedo gear’s housing and the end going inside the passenger compartment to fit the Dakota Digital signal generator that electronically connects to the brain box. The cable looks brand new because it is!
This is the custom end that the Dakota Digital speedo signal generator screws on to
and the signal generator which connects it to the brain box.
i forgot to wrap with the non-sticky harness tape the wires to the blower motor and AC compressor power wires. Got that done as well as wrapped the power wire and ground wire from the blower motor.
