Re: [T3] electrical issues (was:Speaking of headlights...)


When I added the second fuse box (Did the Parma gang see THAT too? :-o) I
added a relay to each of the new circuits to keep the load off the ignition
switch... good point Jim!
However.. Im running a 72 Column and am using a later switch...  I have a
relay on the 65 ingition switch to keep ALL the current off those underated
contacts.

One thing I remember now, relating to the headlight issue, is that when I
switched to the Halogen version of the standard headlights, they were not
only brighter but drew less current.  I rewired my headlights so that both
filiments stay on for the high beams, but this resulted in the problem of a
melted cover on the stock fuse box until I switched to Halogens but I still
added the second fusebox to handle the extra current.

 so I just hope that Keith has added
