couple things so I'm curious what are the 3 different gauge sizes predominantly used in my truck? I think its 12 14 and 16 but I would like a confirmation on that.
With regards to connecting wires - what's the rule with bigger to smaller?
And then in regards to just wiring in general im curious about making sure correct wire gauges were used by my PO with certain wires in place... Im following my Haynes/Coolerman Wiring diagrams while adding in new wire for accessories taken out of harness - so one question is how do I know where to use what size gauge? and what size gauge is proper for what function?
Im posting on a different thread also about this, but this is what im trying to figure out: my Green/Red wire situation between my Hazard plug, Light Switch, and Fuse box. Between all the Green/Red color coded wires there are 2 sizes which I believe are 14 and 16. Wiring diagrams don't have 2 Green/Red wires going straight to Hazard plug as my rig Does - it shows one going straight there that's protected by a 15amp and then one protected by a 20amp that does ultimately connect to the hazard plug but it goes through the horn relay / stop light switch/ and something else first (Which mine Does Not). And then finally the light switch has a Green/Red that goes to it from fuse box protected by a 15amp. So I need to straighten that out by figuring out which Green/Red on the fuse block needs to run through the horn relay/stop light switch/coolingfantimer and what size that wire gauge should be? And, how do I know which size gauge to use between the three )
