Blue with black top. Nice restored driver. 4V carbureted 302cid and power windows.
I'm working on a 1971 with power windows. The previous owner, for whatever reason, bypassed the safety relay that's behind the DS shock tower and ran a 20 amp fused wire directly from the battery to the DS master switch. Doesn't appear to be any other mods done. I can get the front windows to open and close fine, as long as I have only one of the switches for the rear windows plugged in, but as soon as I plug in the remaining rear window switch, the fuse blows. In checking the power and ground connections in the master switch panel, all power and grounds are as shown in the wiring diagram. Any info or tips are greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
