(IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) up to 73 power comes from fuse 11 and 74 and up the interlock relay under the seat (this often corrodes) black with red lead. |

Thanks, Doc This is a '74 Did those tips solve your problem? I have a '74 with a center backpad light that has never worked. I'm going to try the black/red as a power lead. Just connect it as the hot lead? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Allen |
