Car is 76 with new late wiring harness. Initial wiring checkout after harness install.
Turn signal on, front & rear run lights flash as intended but signal light on tach just comes on once momentarily. Is this normal, or do I have a wiring issue ?? Well, i tried all 5 of my stash of flasher relays, several showed same symptom of single flash, but 1 worked OK. Now the hi beam indicator bulb works fine but does not show thru to front of Tach, Don't know whats up with this |

the bulb holder has a knurled contact make sure the contact is not worn and that it contacts the bulb.
Next, the "light pipe" on the gauge is the ground path. make sure that the black sleeve of the light pipe is preventing the bulb holder to ground. Also check the ground wire for the gauge itself "rings out" to ground. Those are my thoughts having had this same problem Good luck......hate those electrical problems. |
