wiring help

Hi! Had a quick question about the ignition wiring on my 1975 Fj40. This is part of the steering column wire harness that was removed about two years ago, so I’m a little hazy about it. This has to do with the connector that plugs into the back of the metal ignition/or lock cylinder. I think I...

Hello everyone, noobie here! I am attempting to fix up some of the wiring on my car and want to make sure I am doing it correctly. Please see the pics for labels to my 4 questions. A) I believe the BY wire from the + terminal of the ignition coil is supposed to connect to this terminal on...

I've searched a number of different ways and have yet to find an answer to this, so I'm posting here in hopes that one might be able to offer some guidance. I've mounted an ARB dual compressor in the engine bay of my 100 series using the Owl Expedition mount. I understand the battery mains...

I'm in the process of wiring everything up to the new wiring harness (Kwik Wire) for my 72 FJ40 and have an interesting issue going on. I have also installed a new turn signal on the column and thought I had everything wired up properly per the various diagrams that I have been using. My issue...

Howdy all, first post here on the thread, I finally need help. I have a 1973 Fj40, was a frame off. So when it was rewired was rewired with a quick wire kit. My issue is my gauges are all wired, each gauge is getting power in, and each sending unit has power at the sending unit, however none of...

I have been fighting the wiring gremlins of the PO. I have several things sorted out but I am now tackling my reverse lights as they are not working. Your help may explain why the windshield washer is not working or why when I hit the brakes the turn signal indicators light up on the gauge...

I have been trying to figure out why my wipers aren't turning off, and I think I might have found the culprit. There are 2 wires that look like ground wires on my wiper motor mount plate. The one that is supposed to go through the firewall is stripped/cut/dangling now. Does anybody know where...

I'm hoping one of you electrically inclined types can help me out here. I'm in the process if installing a VIAIR on-board-air system in my rig and thought about adding an electronically controlled purge valve to the system for 5h!ts and giggles. I'm planning to use this momentary switch to...

Not sure if this is a lost cause but I am attempting to replace my current toggle switch for the hazard lights with a OEM Toyota pull switch. Where do I begin?? The PO installed the toggle switch and I have not a clue to where to begin. Maybe someone out there can give me a starting point.

So I picked up a trashed 95 with lockers just to remove the lockers to rebuild for my 94. So I want to take the entire axles and wiring to complete the changeover. Now from what I've read I need the harnesses coming from the axles, the computer in the rf kickpanel, the switch and there is...

After watching countless YouTube videos and reading through dozens and dozens of threads, I cannot for the life of me figure out which wire to tap into for my locker switches. I used a "Add a Circuit" for the ignition wire that goes to the switch, but I don't know how to tap into the dash...

I've got an October 1982 HJ47 RHD where the PO added a whole bunch of wiring, most of which doesn't seem to be connected to things. I had issues with the tail lights because he had separated the green wire coming out of the dash by two other wires and I'm starting the process of eliminating all...
