Reply to "Turn Signal Wiring Question"

imageimageimageThat’s interesting. OK here’s one more question and this may be a little difficult because it looks like there’s been several people who have gone through this wiring loom and added all kinds of nonsense through the years. As I’m putting the heater box and the dash back together, after finishing the assembly of the power steering unit, I came across an absolute jumble of wires that were attached back on them selves in a lasso a bunch of tangled copper wraps between them. One is a thick red cable and the other is a thick black cable near the steering column. Both of these seem to run back behind the dash, under the passenger side, rocker panel, and up behind the passenger where they seem to go to either side of the starter solenoid. The black wire branches off into two pink wires that go to the fuse box. With this mess disassembled, there is no power to anything, when I simply touch the two main cables, the red and the black below back together. Everything works like it supposed to. Clearly, this is the connection between right and left as far as the circuits concerned, but I don’t know why these would run all the way up to the cockpit you’re the driver.
