Guys,
I have multiple electrical add-ons that came on the -6 I'm now considering removing: Aiwa stereo and amp Derringer VS8300 alarm system voltmeter driving/mileage computer remote trunk release fuel pump oil pressure bypass power windows power mirrors The PO was an electrical engineer but his "wiring skills" are questionable. I lowered the fuse panel today afraid of what I would find and saw this: I am no wiring genius and looking at this mess is quite daunting! The problem is that all of this was installed back in the mid-80s and there is so little documentation of the mods included in the records I have. And even looking at the installation instructions for the alarm, I can see that the wire colors included in the instructions don't line up with the way the alarm was wired. The alarm is tied into the starting circuit so I'm concerned that I might disable the car and have a tough time getting it running again. I through about checking with a local alarm / stereo installation shop but I'm not sure if they could handle it without full documentation. The only way I know how to do this is to take pics and notes before I undo each wire and start with the simplest add-on first. Any other recommendations / thoughts? |
