tkach Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Here is my current situation I am running an ez21 harness and have everything in the car up and running however I have run into a few issues. I was wondering if anybody has run into any of these before or if anybody has any tips. I’ve got my test light out, and I am also checking my grounds, but am I missing something? Does the lack of an ammeter in place affect the following? Horn works Turn signals work but I don’t see the indicators on the tach working Headlights do not work and when engaged they cause the blue green wire which is wired up per sparkys instructions melt the wires at the combo switch This is just for reference these are from Sparky. ( I would like to thank him for these instructions and would like to say in no way am in blaming him or flaming him for any problem the problem was created by me! Thanks for the info Sparky!) Green/Blue --------> Red 33 Switch power *** note the red 33 splits into red and black, Connect black side to Green/Blue No seeing as the red 33 is a large 12 ga wire I was going to just swap it for my hazard wire as I don’t run hazard lights and it is a lower voltage. However this is a list of Reverse lights do work Brake lights do not work Parking brake indicator does work. When combo switch is switched into driving lights mode all running lights work except for brakes and headlights. And then the blue green wire blows threw the fusible link. My ammeter isn’t hooked up currently High beam indicator does not work neither do the high beams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjhines Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Yes... The ammeter wires must be bolted together in order for the system to work from both the battery and the alternator. There happens to be a very few things that operate on the large white wire. In fact your alternator will run the rest but the battery will not charge unless the white and white+red wires are connected together. White = battery White/red = alternator They meet at the Ammeter. That is how it shows a charging state or a draining state on the battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkach Posted March 8, 2008 Author Share Posted March 8, 2008 Thanks I hope this solves my indicator light problems, because if it does my Z will be back on the road after 3 years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
