I have watched all your vids very nice 🙂 your a jewel of knowledge , I
have the new kit . But I am wondering about the front lights it has one
light for low beam and one light right beside it for hi beam . ect. Do I
just go by the old wiring when doing this I want to do it right. thanks for
any information you have . and please keep up the good work :)
I do plan on recording the work I do while rewiring the truck and posting
it on here using your techniques. I’ll give credit for info to you. Another
thing I plan on doing is installing relays for the healights so that they
are getting the full 14.6v making them much more effective. Also may do a
possible (cheap) anti-theft device that may interest some viewers. Again,
thanks for the videos and the TuT’s. They are very handy and well informed.
Thanks 🙂
no you dont. not yet anyway ive still got one more video coming finishing
off the dash hooking up the gauge cluster without frying anything thanks

idk how much help I can be now, 7 months later, lol but I’m rewiring my 72
c10 and for reference I just took a lot of pictures when I was removing all
the original stuff, took pics of connectors plugged in, took pics of stuff
removed, etc.. helps to have shots of how everything was cuz you can’t
remember all those little things very easily
@Skeksisnv i like the idea on the head lights. closer to the power source,
dont have to run through the harness. whats the trick on the start though i
dont want to wait. relay hooked to the park lights that works coil or
solenoid? dave
@mobilehotrodrepair hahaha i was just kidding im going to try and tackle it
myself. I find it easy to do everything else on a vehicle but when i look
at wires i get intimidated.
I could use some help I bought a ez wiring knock off I think but my problem
is my lights have no power nor does my power windows and I noticed that you
have a power wire from the battery but my instructions don’t mention where
the wire hooks up from the battery could you tell me where its safe to tie
in the main power wire to I am really confused and been stuck for a year
now with a car that starts and runs but no head/tail/blinker lights or horn
half of fusebox works thanks 4 your time
Is there a part 4 to this video series? I can’t seem to find it. Thanks for
doing this btw. I plan on doing the same project with this kit: 1969-72
Chevy Pick Up Wiring American Autowire #510089 on my 1971 GMC pickup. These
videos are will be helpful when I go to tackle my project.
Very god job… I wish you lived close by me, I would pay ya too do my
truck…you do the job right… I was wondering what would ya say is a good
fair price too have that all done???
@killertctma sure i use to live in whitchia falls tx. we use to drive
through ok when gas was 70 cents a gallon. you just have to pay plane fair
traveling costs etc. i charge 40 an hour normally takes between 20 and 30
hours depending on misc stuff. just let me know
im currently have an issue with my brake lights not working. what i do have
is blinkers, running lights, and parking lights. i’ve changed the brake
switch, all the bulbs, and all the fuses. i have a lose wire that runs
threw the bottom of my trunk and hangs under the car right in the back of
the rear end where my send unit wiring is but its hooked to nothing. also i
changed the flasher and it only made my turn signals stop working. im lost
right now very lost, i can;t figure it out.
I purchased a similar kit for my 1966 C-10. Is there any benefit to leaving
the old wires in place for reference purposes, or is it better to just take
everything out at once and start with a clean slate?
Your video’s are astonishingly helpful may I ask where you got that mini
torch you use for shrink wraping and saudering, I assume it works better
than a big torch you have to lug around =P thanks
I have a headlight switch i cant to work all right on a 76 chevy do you
have a schmayic how the wires go on to it i can get headlights but wont
turn off
Just started on my 66GTO going with a painless kit where did you get the
hand torch have been looking for on everything I find cheap name brand ?
thanks .
Good call on the photos, I’m still working thru rust repair at the moment.
I’m trying to video document everything I do, I’ll make a special point to
record the connections and stuff. Thanks for the suggestion.
