Plea From The Heart

Ok a plee from the heart I have been let down re the wiring on Gladys - Plus i am skint can anyone help out I can make coffee and tea and can stretch to a dognut or 6
Heeeeeeeeeeeeelp

 

Not sure I'll be able to help but what exactly do you need?

 

well chaps when it comes to wiring i am clueless i need someone to help me wire my van - the original loom is there and its OK the ignition switch needs rewiring and all of the individual circuits needs testing finally the swap from a dynamo to alternator

Its the unknown i can do - welding fabrication all that stuff is cool beans --- wiring oh no black art hocus pocus

 

I'm in the same situation as you, mecanicals not to bad, but wiggley amps and electric gremlins are not for me, hope someone local can swing by and help you out.

 

Thanks I brought my 1929 model A body from a chap in Fife how strange

 

I'd be happy to pop round and help, but I know diddly squat ( I can do a stereo and tow bar electrics, but that's about it . )

 

my electrical know how is ziltch ,but the camper electrics is realy realy simple ,take the wiring diagram and slowly follow the different colour wires ,they are very basic..

 

If I was closer I'd happily sort it out for you

 

One at a time Dale, as LEF says. They'll only reach where they're meant to go which is a good start.
I know nothing either but I get by with a diagram.

 

Easy peasy but you are too far away
I love wiring jobs, does that make me weird?

 

i"d help out mate BUT yeah, u got it , way to far , annoyingly i lived in Blanford Forum a while back, luvly part of the country your in ! .

 

Sorry dude, as much as I'd love to come down and help out (and see your sled!!!!) I am just too far away from you. The guys are right tho, get the Haynes out and look through it and you can see what colour wire goes to which item and the more you get connected the less needs sorting. Take your time and be methodical. Do what is obvious first, lights switches etc. Don't give up fella it's not rocket science.

 

Know how you feel m8 i gotta rewire my beetle. but will do it when i get to that stage. will be looking up diagrams and taking close up pics of m8's beetle's for ref.
the haynes manual i got, the wiring diagrams dont seem to be as good as they were 20 yrs ago..

I think shropshire is too far away for me to try and advise or even look at my wiring to compare to wire yours.

 

My worries are Fires etc - get it wrong and all that work is scrap - race cars aren't this difficult

 

am like u dale i look at the wiring all i see is a rats nest , leave it to them that no s thats my motto good luck owen nw
