electrical

I finally got around to installing the DEPO headlights on my truck. The problem that I'm trying to figure out is that something is draining my battery now. I used a custom harness from Ray over RallyLights and I've emailed him to see if he has any ideas. But in the meantime I thought I'd ask...

My 80 has started playing some interesting games. A couple weeks back, the rear wiper acted up. We were on a trip in some snow, and it would turn on and stay on no matter the position of the switch on the stalk. Hit the brakes, and the wiper would stop. Not a big deal, and the next day it...

Long post I know but please bear with me here... Recent Issues: -- Put key in ignition, turn to acc. position and all the dash lights flicker for a second then completely go off. I look down at my voltmeter I installed above the seat heater switches and it is not even illuminated. -- Removed...

Hey guys/gals. A buddy online just showed me a group buy on the Switch-Pros product. It uses solid state switching and powers 8 buttons for lights or accessories. I briefly searched and didn't see anything. Does anyone here have any experience with it? Thanks!

We had a large storm cell too through last night in Texas. Around 3:00am I was awoken by not thunder, but a horn blaring intermittently outside the house. By the time I got dressed it was stuck on. I had to scramble to find tools and disconnect the battery while being half asleep. My wife...

The '78 has been on the back burner for the last few months, but I have finally gotten through most of the remaining issues - except the electrical. I think I have have some sort of battery drain and I am struggling to locate it. Things that are not stock in the systems are: Light switches...

Looking for replacement master switch assembly in grey (windows & lock) for drivers door. I could settle for just the power window internal sub-assembly if necessary. Thanks!

Hey Guys, Iv'e done all sorts of researching but just couldn't find a similar situation. although many other threads have gotten mt to this point, so thank you! I have recently had some electrical issues with the truck. Long story Short... It started up perfectly fine from sitting for 2 days...

So here is the issue thats driving me crazy. Symptoms: 1. When I have my head lights turn ON for night driving my rear brake lights stay continuously on regardless if i press the brake pedal or not. 2. When I have my headlights OFF and press the brake my fog lights light up and my clock...

I am looking to add a aux fuse box and a solar controller behind the rear passenger trim panel. I saw that metric TLC had one but having checked them out on mud it seems that its best to avoid them. Anyone know if their is another source for a bracket like this or have any ideas on how to make one?

Hello, I have only been an LC100 owner for 3 months and I have been going through and fixing little things here and there while getting a nice baseline on all routine maintenance items. In general, I am not super anal, but I like my vehicle to be VERY clean and for everything to work, so all of...

So the rig is running great...except for a loud popping noise coming from the fuse panel area. It happens when its cold and accelerating or if I hit the gas and open the throttle. Rig is a 10/75, desmogged and rebuilt motor. Electrical system is all stock but in good shape. The popping noise...

Hi Guys, To start, I have read several threads on here related to poor/intermittent starting, as well as RPMs dropping to zero while driving. It all seems to lead to EFI circuit being compromised. Symptoms: No CEL when key turned to on and no spark, starter would crank perfectly when turning...

Starting about 2 days ago, I noticed an intermittent starting issue. Once in a while, when I turned the key to engage the starter, all power to the truck would drop off. Fortunately, it would start right up on the 2nd attempt but the clock would be reset. I figured that I had to learn how to...

Howdy, all. I spent Saturday working on the LC and had the battery out for several hours. After reinstalling and reconnecting everything, I realized that I had no power to the door locks, windows, and seats. Checked the fuses and indeed, I had blown the 30A "FL Power" fuse. I replaced the fuse...

Hi guys, I need some help troubleshooting some problems developing on my 1992 FJ80 I posted a while back about a charging problem. I want to thank everyone who posted suggestions. I knew the truck had been sitting for at least a year, and thought that the problem was related to the truck not...

I have an unfamiliarly new Starter Motor that looks a bit different than the old one and unfortunately does not have any labels on it that I can see. So my question is simply, Where does the IGN START wire connect to my specific starter solenoid? This wire.... Where does it connect to this...

So I'm maybe close to half way through re-wiring my entire '65 FJ40 with a 76ish 2F engine and I've run into some trouble. I'm using a 21 circuit EZ-wiring harness. I tried to get a hold of EZ, calling several times on two seperate occasions this week and unfortunately, for some reason they did...

My starter bit the dust a few days ago, and after having it replaced with a rebuilt one, some lights showed up on the dash of my 96 FJ80. Some threads I read said that it was probably my alternator going out, but when I had it tested it was all good. The lights only show up when i'm in park or...
