    Hi
    Well I am back to my wiring. I disconnected all indicator lights from the wiring diagram under dash harness. I also disconnected the steering column (33 Only) connector that sends juice to the built in directional switch, horn switch and flasher switch. With the key on, the harness read as follows:

    Brown (horn) 12.43 Volts

    Green (Left Ft Turn sig) .04 Volts

    Lt Blue (Rt Ft Turn) 0 Volts

    Pink (hazzard Flashers) 11.21

    Grey (Turn Sig Flasher) 11.24 volts

    Yelo (Lft Rear Turn) .03 volts

    White (right Rear Turn) 0 Volts

    Purp/blk (brake lights) 12.43 Volts

    Does this sound correct?

    This plug comes from the stock harness connected to the fuse panel with no modifications.

    Go-Karting the car showed me just what a beast I had built. I have never driven anything quite so quick and I can see where you can get in over your head very easily. I have raced go karts and autocross a lotus elan years ago but this is a whole new animal. Thank you for your help.

    Tom,

    That looks correct except for the brake light wire. Check the brake safety switch and be sure you have the wires attached to the proper spade connectors and that the switch is engaged when the brake pedal is in the resting position. There are two sets and the clutch and brake switches are wired opposite each other.



    The horn goes through a relay and the horn button typically is just triggering the relay. The flasher and turn signal feed wires should be hot as they feed the switches.
