I have another thread on a blinker short issue that I am still stuck on.
I was hoping to be able to keep that issue separate from some dodgy add on PO wiring. But alas they have merged and I cannot avoid it anymore. I was doing a test drive last week and I had to turn the steering wheel lock to lock for a parking situation. When I did that I heard crunching. My turn signal issue went from bad to worse and I saw new wires hanging down. A PO had routed wires in and around the steering shaft and turning full lock grabbed them and broke some connections. Sure, I have time to fix that, now top of the list. So the question is; I have seen some people with great examples of wiring, mostly in build threads. I can't go back and search those for pics. I don't remember where they were. So I decided to ask in a new thread. Does anyone have pics, examples, suggestions of aftermarket wiring and how to run them for nice looking, safe routing and reliable function? Just routing them in and around brackets and using cable ties is not working for me. I think I remember Brock, RIP had some nice examples, but have not found them. Car has; Gates 5 gauge cluster Center console with 3 more gauges, someone liked gauges After market stereo and sub wiring, but nothing installed Relocated fuel pump, in the front, and wiring Elec washer fluid pump and wiring Some interesting fuse panel connections All done poorly in my opinion Mostly looking for cable management type solutions and routing but all things electrical are welcome. |

@tygaboy
Another thumbs up for HP Academy. Chris turned me onto this amazing resource. I just took the first basic class as my needs were pretty simple. The instruction was broken into digestable sections with very specific, clear concise content. I learned a ton of basics that I apply to all my wiring and wiring planning. Good review of all the basic materials and tools to make up neat and functional wiring harnesses. The advanced instruction looked pretty mind blowing and way over my head. HP Academy technicians...wow these guys are really smart. my two cents |
