First Drive today - speedo and electrically issues / help?

[Kramer]

Hello Fred - as goes the speedometer I just wanted to say thanks b/c I am going to follow your plan laid out in the earlier thread. (I called Doug today but he is not in so I will talk to him tomorrow). In the meantime, I ordered the new cable and will prepare to go through your steps....Thank you for taking the time to help me.

Rick - The more I've talked with Bob this morning I am getting the feeling that when my TWM installer put in the stack system, he bypassed the waring light when putting the electric together for the car. If this is the case, the alternator isnt wired back to the voltage regulator....thus never recharging the battery. I am doing some research today but to feel comfortable I think I am going to retrace most of the wiring. (Especially after I was working on the speed yesterday and on one of my start attempts there was smoke coming from the firewall..my best guess is when I was working on the speed I push something into something else that momentarliy created a short.

More fun.....

Kramer
