    Ok what the F just happened! Blew the battery caps off!

    What battery tender do you use? I would like to get a decent one not some harbor freight cheapo. Just to update my situation I do need a new battery. I removed it from my car over the weekend and charged it for a few hours and it is totally dead!

    It was actually the cap near the positive side of the battery that blew off. The other one stayed on

    Ok what the F just happened! Blew the battery caps off!

    I had my mechanic install a painless wiring harness & he basically butchered it. After I got my car back, I had no 12V power to my gauges, he also completely cut my plug to the dimmer switch. I also had no power to my instrument lights. The seat belt buzzer under the seat he took that wire & ran...

    Ok what the F just happened! Blew the battery caps off!

    Any opinions on these battery covers? I found this over at Roseville Moparts while searching batteries after my charging mishap. I like the original factory look it’s $75 more or less, so a little on the pricey side to me for a chunk of plastic but obviously way cheaper than a retro style...

    Ok what the F just happened! Blew the battery caps off!

    Thanks I’ve had this battery for a few years with no issues but I will check for a vent & make sure it isn’t plugged. I’m hoping it’s just an unfortunate coincidence and not related to my recent wiring issues.

    Ok what the F just happened! Blew the battery caps off!

    Just to recap my recent problems and posts. I’ve had some wiring harness issues. I think I have them fixed to the point where I can drive my car. Once my harness issues were resolved the battery had died so I left it on a trickle charge for a few days my car started right up drove it and had no...

    Well new problem now. I just spent the day putting everything back together and of course the car won’t start! It tries to turn over cranking for a split second then just the clicking sound from the solenoid. Even with a 200/A battery starter on it I can’t get it to turn over. Just to recap...

    Yeah it’s kind of a mess! Thank you everyone for the help! I’d still be 1/2 stuffed under my dash swearing like a madman if it wasn’t for everyone’s help! As of now I have 12v to the gauge cluster (used the large blue Acc wire at the base of the column) and have power to the instrument...

    I need help!

    I checked mine its dead. My problem is the guy who put in the painless fuse block butchered my wiring. So that’s why I’m now just trying to find power where I can to get things working again. I have my instrument lights back. It’s not factory correct but they work so I’ll take it! The dimmer I...

    Wipers do work but do not park themselves when I shut them off. I gave up on the dimmer for now, I think I’m closer to getting the gauges and instrument lights working so I’m focusing on those first. Quick question. I’m trying to run a new 12V wire to the voltage limiter im just not sure which...

    I need help!

    Just checked I have power from the headlight switch into the Dimmer SW. but no power when I check the other two terminals on the dimmer switch connection? I even removed the dimmer & used jumpers to bypass it in case the switch is bad. On a positive note I did run a 12V jumper to the RTE...

    I need help!

    So I need to find 12V and bring it to the RTE regulator, does that give power to the entire gauge cluster?

    I need help!

    Thank you I think I have the gauge lights figured out. I started to look at my gauge cluster I have power to the Alt gauge (all I have at the moment is a simple test light) the needle on the alt gauge doesn’t move at all. If I turn on the directional shouldn’t the needle twitch a little with a...
