    What did you do to your car today?

    OMG 😱 this is so badass that a simple “like” isn’t enough. I bought my weeks ago with a Kenwood deck from like 2002 ish, has aux cord input, but no Bluetooth.  I wish it still had the original radio with 8 track so I could copy you. I think I’ll buy one, non-working, to give it that nostalgic...

    What did you do to your car today?

    I fixed short caused by a single pole bulb in this two pole reverse light lamp. Lesson learned: never put a single pole bulb in a two pole lamp! Lesson learned: check fuses first. If replacement fuse blows, check your shorts.

    Turn Signal Repair, Jury Rigged

    Ok, so #6 is both turn signals and reverse lights and it turns out previous owner had single pole bulbs in a two pole lamp, causing the short. The original reverse lamps were single pole, but the replacements are two pole. See pic. See how there are two contacts at the bottom? If you put a...

    Turn Signal Repair, Jury Rigged

    "Top left" is ambiguous, depending on which way you're looking at it. It would be top right on this picture (see attachment). I'll check this fuse first, but then again, wipers work and according to this diagram, reverse lights and wipers are on the same fuse, then again, this car has lots of...

    Turn Signal Repair, Jury Rigged

    This white/purple wire (see attachment)? I would imagine daisy chained to a number of things, but this particular branch goes to the signal flasher can, so this branch of the wire is for turn signals only.  Cutting this white/purple line at this point won't impact anything else. This...

    Turn Signal Repair, Jury Rigged

    Checked, wipers work still.  Everything is working as it should with turn signals, brake lights, parking lights, headlights, hazards, radio, and wipers, both stationary and drive test proven,  thanks to yours and Don C help. Thank you.  My reverse lights don't work, though. Reverse lights...

    Lots of factory parts for sale.

    On the other hand, if I was to choose between your factory original center console and the direct fit replacement, and they were the same price, I might pick the direct fit replacement, because it would look brand new. Used factory original vs replica, pros and cons to each. Trying to do a...

    Lots of factory parts for sale.

    Fair market value? Hmmm. Supply and demand would dictate, I would think.    here is an aftermarket center console direct fit, not original: https://www.cjponyparts.com/acp-center-console-assembly-black-1971-1973/p/CON79/ $630! so, you’d think that an original factory console would be worth...

    Turn Signal Repair, Jury Rigged

    See uploaded image, the radio is now wired directly to the battery with a 10A fuse inline. I didn’t replace the radio. Now radio stays on and no shorts are occurring when turning. At this point, everything is working as it should with turn signals, brake lights, parking lights, headlights...

    Turn Signal Repair, Jury Rigged

    This was happening when I had jumpered the right rear into the right front, but I’m all good now on the turn signals, all 4 work as expected, with and without brakes. So this is why to NOT wire them together! When brake is applied, both rear get power and this will cause the right front turn...

    Turn Signal Repair, Jury Rigged

    Ok, I switched the white w/red stripe and the white w/blue stripe and put the orange back to normal and now everything works as it should. What a mess. So the front right turn signal wire (white with blue stripe) got mixed up with the hazard power wire! Yikes 😱. Glad that’s over. Still had to...

    Turn Signal Repair, Jury Rigged

    https://youtu.be/G6BaT01PjyY Just posted this YouTube video and was wondering if anyone wants to discuss.    Here’s a pic of the 71:   So, turn signal repair ended up a little jury rigged, but they work now, all 4. We’re proud of ourselves (my son and I) for making them work. Wondering if...
