Even 6 volt in the 52 3100 would have been negative ground. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2011 Posts: 51 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Oct 2011 Posts: 51 | yeah thats what i thougt! strange that someone has converted it to postive ground espescially since the truck was bought from california. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2010 Posts: 4,263 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2010 Posts: 4,263 | There was a post similar to this a while back.
The owner saw a Red cable used for the ground on the negative post and assumed it was positive ground.
