wiring

Hey guys! I just bought an ARB single compressor off amazon. Initially I was just going to run alligator clips from the battery, but after looking through some videos on youtube, it doesn't seem like it comes with the hardware in the box. I then decided I was going to mount it in the engine bay...

Hi, I might be potentially getting an entire rear locked axle assembly including ECU, harness etc etc from a '96 Land Cruiser to swap into my unlocked '97 LX450. I searched and read a few threads on wiring and learned: Land Cruisers from various years may have different colored wires because...

Hello everyone, and happy holidays. I've found two wires on the intake side of my 2L-TE that I cannot identify, and I'm having trouble tracing. One wire is 10awg Black with orange tracer, this has a push fit terminal. The other seems to have been repaired, and is black at origin, it has a...

G'day, I've just signed up in hope to shed some light on the problem I've got in my hj61 1986 12ht. I feel like I've read all threads related to charging issues read the workshop manual and done a tonne of Google searches and work on the cruiser with no luck. I was driving when the dash...

Hey pro's, Mom's Corolla had a no start, and as i was chasing grounds, i came across a weird , plug in sensor. OOPs, Appears to be plugged into the COP ignitor harness, and is a one wire sensor. It has an epoxied window, and a 45o angled sheetmetal clip, looks like it just fits over a...

My FJ60's PO, who apparently had a sort of wiring fetish, saw fit to replace the original starter motor wiring (from the loom) with a 6 foot piece of insulated lamp cord. While I'm doing my rebuild, I plan to rewire it to match the original. Does anyone have a photo or a drawing of what the...

Hi, I am getting desperate for a wiring solution. My engine is getting machined at the moment and I will have it back in a few weeks. I want to have my FJ40 (1973 for context) re-wired by then. Right tow, everything is a mess. Previous owners screwed up all of the wiring under the hood, and on...

Have a new to me 200, trying to tidy up wiring and install brake controller. First off, what gauge wire is used for the switches? It looks smaller than 22 to me, but I am not sure. Second, if I wanted to get new terminal pins what is the connector style? How do I identify the proper style...

Hey All, I wanted to reach out and get a feel for the need / want of pre-terminated dual battery kits. I know electrical is not for everyone, and want to bring my experience and trade into the LC world. I feel that certain crowds get all of the attention from vendors i.e Tacomas, Jeeps, etc...

Hey guys, I wasn't sure if anyone had an old '65 laying around with the wiring harness installed. I tried to lay mine in and found that most of the wires are too short. So I am doing something wrong. I am really looking for pictures under the dash/ each place where the wiring harness pulls...

Hey guys, newbie here. Just bought a new 60s and currently decluttering the engine bay of past botched wiring jobs from now non-existing accessories to prevent any shorts happening in the future (all sorts of untaped open wires hanging about) and having a little trouble recognising whats stock...

Hi Everyone: I was changing the solenoids on my FJ80's tranny this weekend because she was not starting in 1st gear and shifting at speed. Once I took the solenoids out, i realized two of the wires on the harness connecting to the solenoids were severed. Probably the cause of the problem, I'd...

Yet another one of these, but I've been studying the other ones. Especially, this one: 2nd battery install question 87 FJ60, desmogged with plenty of room around the edges. I plan on the blue sea systems switches and ACR, and running 2 gauge. Here is a diagram I laid out, and wanted to put it...

Howdy all - I bought a 1991 PZJ77 last summer up in Seattle, been lurking here awhile and finally posting. My phone died a while back, so my sweet pics of the 77 touring Saskatchewan are somewhere in the cloud. I'll either take new ones or figure out how to get em and post em shortly. Anyway -...

Here's my Sunday fun. 96 LX with 240k. It abruptly died while driving. AM2 fusible link is gone. I ordered 2 and replaced it after visual inspection of engine bay wiring. The new one went up in smoke as soon as I turned the key to ON. I have a temporary fuse for testing and one spare FL. I have...

Is it possible to run wires from the sunroof controls and map light to either A-pillar, then down to either the kick panel area? This is on a '94, so removing the headliner for access isn't a practical option. :frown: Ideally, I want to run the wires between the inner and outer body panels...

Working on sourcing an extra wiring harness for my 1980 FJ40 so we can replace some of the damaged runs. I've found several used harnesses, but am a bit skeptical buying a harness without knowing the year. I've referenced many of the resources on MUD and am looking for a second opinion as I'm...

I've read a bunch of threads on dual battery installations and I've seen many people talk about having a "start-only" battery. I'm just wondering whether people wire it so that it's truly only used for starting, with the fusible links rerouted to the secondary battery, or if they mean "start...

I recently replaced the alternator in my 85 FJ60 and about a week later the AC and radio stopped working. I noticed my battery was saying less than 12v when running so I decided to check the back of the alternator to confirm, it also said 12. I then checked the fusible link and this is what it...

hey all, newbie here. Need some assistance if possible, hope I'm coming the right place. My '86 4runner sat a bit while I was overseas, meanwhile a $&*% squirrel decided a 6" section of my engine harness made a warm n tasty nest. I've extended all the connections with new wiring and checked...
