Also i messed up a little and the batteries hit the wing nut. So i took the latches off the plastic box and mounted them to the metal one. Here are the finished product. - paint
Here is the culprit. The metal clamp above the steering column. It looks like it chafed for a while and finally grounded out. So i was able to get the tape off and dig in. This wire was pulled out from a big glob of rubber. I am guessing they did this as protection for the "Y" splice. No idea...
lol. Until I read the manuals and talked to the "experts" like you, warthog, and Recovery.
Good thing I go to both family reunions.
I think I'm gonna undo the harness and see whats going on in there, Repair as needed to buy me some time and then look for a new harness
Had some problems with the deuce today. Went to get a vin check and when I came home I was testing all of the lights. Then I hit the high beam switch sparks started flying by the switch then the wires above the steering wheel started to catch fire. I did some good damage. I was able to put it...

There was a post a while back about pipe cleaner looking wire brushes. Also that is a common fuse that gives people problems. On mine I had to add solder to it so it would make a tight contact.
