I noticed after I returned from DVSF, my ammeter gauge was acting funny, reading abnormally high. The glass became fogged (like it had gotten wet) and stopped working with the indicator pegged at 60+ amps. I pulled it out of the dash last night and the PLUS B terminal wire looked like it had melted, or a rubber or plastic part near the post had burnt.
I have located new gauge, which is on order. Any ideas why it cooked? The wiring harness I inherited with the car is rife with problems, the least being I have no central fuse panel. Most of the wiring has inline fuses all over the car.
Any idea why it would suddenly cook?
Also, my headlight toggle appears to be cooked, and all four of my running lights bulbs exploded...... Lucas strikes again...
Suggestions? New wiring harness perhaps?
