|
|
I'm working on replacing all of the wiring FWF on a 78 Tiger.
Some interesting observations:
• someone had installed a 14 gauge wire from the "A" terminal to the main buss instead of the shielded wire to the alternator.
• This plane 'had' both the over voltage diode and the over voltage relay
- I removed both (and the yellow Alt light) and installed an Zeftronics R15V00 RevA regulator and added the idiot light.
• The wire with the diode from the yellow alt light was pulled out of its connector. I wasn't connected anyway.
• whoever installed new head phone jacks put the old ones in little plastic bags and tied them under the panel
- no push-to-talk leads were installed on the mic jacks so that'll be fun.
• The 8 AWG wire to the main buss had been cut and spliced twice with black tape around soldered joints
• both grounded shields on the alternator had been eliminated.
• all of the wiring had cracked insulation. Very badly cracked insulation.
More later
