Electrical issue ebody help - 11/25/13 07:57 AM

Not sure if they are related, but.
The E flasher would only work with the blinker lever up/ down.
The dome light doesn't work with the knob (door open OK )
Then the dash lights went out, the fuse was blown for "console" (left side 4th from bottom). Tried 2 more fuses no help of course.
I get 12 volts and 1.3 amps at fuse, same as rest of fuses.
Not sure where to start.
It is a new resto, with new under dash harness only.
Thanks

Do you have the old dash harness?? If you do, I'd start by comparing the wire routing to the new harness.
Sounds to me that there could be some wires not in the right places. It certainly wouldn't be the first time that a reproduction harness is bad. I just went thru a nightmare with a harness for a Dart.

I have the old harness but nothing got marked.
And no schematic, hopefully YO can get me one, as I purchased it from them.
Was your harness a YO item?
Are your wire colors the same as factory?
Plugs the same also?
I have several plug ends with nothing plugged in.
Yet several items not installed such as cig lighter light, map light, glove box light and ign key light ,,,

When installing a new harness, you need to lay out both harnesses next to each other. Compare the new harness to the old one. Make sure the wire colors are the same and make sure they are going to the same place. Also check every connector to make sure everything is tight.

I hope you did that and just didn't install the harness without looking it over.
