Tell me if I am right, wrong or an idiot. 1. I ran the wire from the starter to the right post[driver side] of the amp gage. 2. I ran the wire from the battery post on the voltage reg. to the B post on the headlight switch. 3. There is no wire, in new harness, running from the headlight switch B post to the amp gage left post[passanger side]. Should there be one? 4. The reason for the above question is that the original harness has a wire running from the amp gage, left post to the battery post on the voltage reg. with an original splice to the headlite switch B post. One wire three connections Pleease let me know if you can help.

Chev wiring diagram [as seen on screen you're looking from the front of the vehicle] shows 3 wires on one post of the ammeter [used as a junction point] and 2 on the other, if your original harness had spliced wires away from those terminals, ignore that, is not a good setup even if original and could as well have been changed sometime .... the wire you think is missing would be power to the lights, examine if the new harness might be supplying it from somewhere else, if not you can add the indicated short wire from the ammeter to the switch [maybe some extra single wires in the harness kit?] Bill | | | | Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,440 Extreme Gabster | Extreme Gabster Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,440 | Another thing you should be aware of. The GMC was positive ground and there were other slight differences between it and the Chevy. You may have to make minor modifications here and there. | | | | Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 64 Wrench Fetcher | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 64 | Thanks for the quick reply, Doug | | |
