Hi all, I have a 73 Cuda and just installed a Holley sniper system. If you know this system, you know that you need a clean 12 volt source on key. So, as per many recommendations, I used the blue and brown wire on the steering column. I cut them and ran them to a relay and the car runs great (see photo below)... But the alternator won't charge the battery. The alternator and volt regulator tested good. I think it's because I cut the blue wire... ???
Can I tap back into the blue wire and jump it back to where I made the cut, while still feeding the relay??? In other words, I need the blue wire to feed the relay for EFI and tap back into original harness. Will this back feed noise into EFI? And I think with this system, I don't need to do anything more with the brown wire because there is no ballast resistor. You can see below where I cut the blue and brown wires leading into plastic connector. Or do I have a different problem all together? Thanks!!
