    Car still runs with key off ..have I wired this right?

    Trigger wire is definitely in the wrong place...you mentioned IGN1 and IGN2... Ive found the blue provides power in "on" position but goes off when moved to "START" , the brown wire is the opposite... are you implying that I can connect the two and use that as the trigger or did I misread your...

    Car still runs with key off ..have I wired this right?

    Did a quick search but couldnt find anything specific to help me.Ive rewired my engine bay and moved the battery to the truck area. I connected the charge wire from my "one wire" alternator, directly to the +B pole on the starter motor as recommended, and it starts and runs properly...however...

    wiring

    One wire at a time is my advice...work out where both ends go each time, finish that one move to the next one...as mentioned there are some colour coded wiring diagrams to be had at My Mopar... thats a good start ...Im in the middle of this too...its quite the task but stick at it

    Rookie electrical question

    67 Dart...this was the first thing I did....deleted the amp gauge too, Ill run a separate Volt gauge to keep an eye on things...And Cracked...definitely wont be pulling any accessory wires from Mother Mopar harness ...The battery cable does run iinside the cabin...I have a circuit breaker at the...

    Rookie electrical question

    I was going to run the battery cable to a pole under the dash, that goes through the firewall also...Power starter from engine bay side and alternator wire to this pole in the engine bay also ( Im looking at "hiding the wiring")...The bulkhead fitting will be under the dash and all the wiring...

    Rookie electrical question

    Im fitting relays to my headlight circuit. Does it matter how far from the headlight the relay is? Want to be fitting them under dash and running cable forward...For the record Im probably going LED ...Plan B is something on the front of the rad support but hoping this is unnecessary.. Thoughts?

    Bulkhead Delete

    Has anyone actually deleted the bulkhead fitting in a bid to tidy the engine bay wiring...Im looking at a full clean up in there, and am not sure If I should pull the plug and mount it somehow inside the firewall, or cut it off and solder wires on and direct them to their respective...

    Things you Find

    Bingo, you got it in one I cant get the spade out of the bulkhead plug to repair the bare wire ( which I also believe is way too small ) so I think Im just going to bypass the mess and run it straight inside elsewhere, through my own fitted grommet...I want to buy a new fusible link though, how...

    Things you Find

    Thanks for the replies guys...time to hit the shed again and see if I can kick some goals...good information there and Im not too excited about the one wire alternator either but it was on there when I got the car and it works...Im hoping to get a birdcage alternator upgraded amperage wise and...

    Things you Find

    LHD still, and yes 68 Barracuda....new harness would probably make sense but it appears I wouldnt be using most of it anyway, dont need any of the alternator wiring, nor the water temp switch, the oil pressure switch , the distributor/coil wiring, thats all covered with the MSD, gauges all...
