I troubleshot the blinkers, and taillights. The whole fuse array was corroded, and I found one burnt out fuse.
I got everything working, except for one taillight. A little more probing with the DMM and I found an extra corroded fuse, so I now have everything working!
I went to head off to the local Friday night cruise scene, got half way down my street when I realized I only had one headlight working.
I spent the rest of the night and all morning trying to figure out how to get my passenger headlight to work, to no avail.
Roger had done a cool mod which replaced the big bugeye round headlights with these cool rectangle lights, so the lights only flip up a little bit, but I only have low beams (no big deal).
Next I'm going to try switching the wires to the high beam wires, and see if I can't get both headlights to work doing that.
Earlier today I also found a tiny pinhole leak in my Fluidine radiator.
It's so small I can probably continue to drive the car and just keep an eye on the resevoir levels.
I considered trying that "Stps Leaks" stuff, but I should be half-assing anything on my new girlfriend, so the radiator is probably coming out of the car in the next few days for a proper repair.
So far, I'm loving being a Pantera owner! Little things to work on, clean up, nothing major, everyone I've met so far has been as nice as can be. I'm loving it!
