Hello all!

I just recently acquired a complete harness from a member here to replace my non existing harness in my 73. It's in okay shape but would like to wrap the spots that needs repair again. Was wondering the best stuff to use? My thoughts were bicycle handle bar tape.
Also, besides the Haynes manual schematic drawing is there a more vivid one to get? I'm blind as a bat and following that I have to use a magnifying Glass along with reading glasses which makes it more frustrating to use.

Thank you!!

If you need to repair any of the wiring in the harness, definitely use the inline splice method. Here's a quick link...

For re-wrapping the harness, it's best to use harness tape. Tangerine has it here (lower right corner).

If you have to make several spices, stair step your splice locations so you don't have a big pregnant wad

Try one of these. Worth the $20. Laminated and component called by name not a reference number.

Ha! never thought of that as a "pregnant wad" but it's a perfect description.

Thanks for that!!!

Thanks all for this great information...lot of food for thought!!!

If you can't wait for the pre made one, send the appropriate copy of this http://www.pelicanparts.com/914/914_electrical_diagrams.htm
To your local printer. Have it printed on 11x17 sheets and then laminated.
I do this for all the different years of 911's for the guys at or shop so we can have a library for working on the cars. They like the large (ledger) size paper for following the wires. Prospero's prints on the back but I print each page individually so you can see the whole diagram at once. Use painters tape and you can hang it on the car above the area you are working.
