first the thrills of victory: the engine's in, and starts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) it took a push button for the starter(temp fix) but the damn thing will run...

now the new barrage of questions:

1) when I turn the key "on" the brake lights in the rear come on... now, I don't have the front brakes even attached right now (SOON) but will that cause the brake lights to be on? what to check? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

2) this one is just annoying: when I turn on a blinker(either) they work fine on the outside of the car, just like they are supposed to, but both indicators on the tach come one (like when the hazards are on)... the hazard switch works perfect... I just don't get why both indicators come on (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)


3) there are 3-4 wires that the wiring diagram shows going to the coil... but which side? there's a green wire from the distro, a blk/red wire, a blk/purple wire and I think there's 1 more... but I could be wrong? at anyrate, which side (+or - ) do these wires go to on the coil?

thanks in advance!

Pretty sure mine only has one light in the tach.

make sure you get the =12v wire on the oppisite pole from the green coil wire or you will let the majic smoke out and be looking for a new point wire.

It'll be o.k. if I just keep to myself how I know that right.....
