    Trailer Wiring Question

    I'm looking to add a trailer harness to my 96 FZJ 80 because I don't seem to have one. I dropped my spare today just to make sure it wasn't tucked up in there somewhere and took these pictures. I've read the threads on the Hoppy harness replacement that plugs in behind the passenger side...

    Electrical Help

    Yeah I haven't had the chance to get the multi meter out so I'm just trying to troubleshoot and guess for now. I'm gonna replace all three anyway cause they're really old and don't appear to have been replaced in a while just to prevent further problems down the road.

    Electrical Help

    Sorry for the dumb question but i'm guessing I only need the 50 and 60 amp links and not the 110 main considering that its only the radio and the interior lights that don't have power.

    Electrical Help

    I accidentally shut my seatbelt in my driver side car door last night, so naturally when I got into it today my battery was dead. I wasn't watching really paying that close of attention when the person jumped it, and they reversed the positive and negative connectors on the jump start kit (i...

    mechanic help

    so here's the problem... My brakes locked up going about 2 mph on a gravel road today. I have very extreme brake pedal pressure and it takes a lot of effort to push the pedal in all the way. The master cylinder is new as of a year ago and I don't have any brake fluid leaking in the engine bay...

    Long distance hikers

    Just got back from the AT. had a great trip. That body you linked in an article was found at our pickup point. We ran into all kinds of rangers on the trail asking us questions about specific hikers. It was kinda creepy. Also, there is rumor that another body was found floating in the James...

    I would, but it's through school so that is definitely not an option. Plus I thought it was illegal to pack heat on the trail even with a CCP.

    Long distance hikers

    link? I'd be very interested to read that article/news report. :eek: I'm going with a big group of people, so I'm not really that worried.

    Fuse help

    Got it. It runs all the way to the back to power aftermarket subwoofers that the previous owner removed. I knew the right and left audio hookups were there, but never noticed the power tucked away in the left corner.

    Fuse help

    I was thinking about that possibility. I don't know if you can tell from the picture, but it's a much beefier wire than the stock wiring.

    Fuse help

    Alright I'm trying this from my phone, so I may need to redo this from my computer. Anyway I randomly looked in my engine bay and noticed a fuse open on a cord from the battery? I taped it back up with electrical tape, it's the one going into the truck in the second picture. It comes from the...
