  1. Thank you very much. I figured that out. Finally got it adjusted correctly.
  2. I have a 72 with the solid sunroof. The motor hums then jams with no movement at all. Is the removal procedure the same as described above for the moonroof?
  3. The power steering is not working. When I got the car a week ago, the control valve was leaking and I replaced the seals with a kit that came with the car. No leaks now, but no power assist. Any ideas? Could the previous owner have reversed the hoses to the power piston? (Pump has fluid in it.) Would that cause my issue?
  4. My car car will start in any gear. I have adjusted the neutral saftey switch in every position known to man and can't get it to complete the start circuit in only P or N. How do you adjust this thing?
  5. So I ran an 8 gauge wire from the battery to a relay (near the switches in the console) that's triggered from the ignition switch. Once triggered, power and plenty of current is supplied to the switches and the motors. Now my windows glide effortlessly up and down all the way. My new circuit worked wonders.
  6. Thank- you. My windows move so slow and struggle to reach the top with me pulling up the glass. The glass is alligned with the tracks and the springs on the regulators are loaded tight. If I put a 12v battery directly to the motors, they fly up and down perfectly. My guess is they are not getting enough current. So I want to try relays with a thicker guage wire to see if that gives them a stronger push.
  7. Does anybody have a good wiring diagram for the power windows on an 87 or 88 hardtop or convertible? Would sure appreciate it.
