Hello I am new to this forum and new to FJ's (I have a 1976). I have already been all over this forum and all are a wealth of knowledge. I am just trying to get my FJ a little more road worthy to drive the family around for a few weeks and then tear it down. I am running into an electrical issue though and I thought maybe a somebody could help me resolve. I have already looked at many schematics but they dont seem to be exactly what i have.
None of my gauges work (with the exception of voltage), no blinkers, no brake lights. So I pulled off my fuse box panel and found a wire coming from what I believe to be the engine fuse and mostly had all the insulation melted from it. There were small pieces left and looked as though it was entirely black with no other markings. So I started tearing into the harness and of course it gets into a very difficult area were i cant pin point which wire is which. This wire has also broken during my troubleshooting and now the truck wont turn over.
Any recommendations or ideas would be greatly appreciated. I would like to figure out where this wire goes and maybe splice I to an easier location.
