  3. Ammeter wiring

    in 1965-83 Avanti

    Posted

    I am resurfacing my instrument panel and re-installing the guages in my '78 RQB 2698. Does the ammeter have a ground wire? I took a picture before I took everything apart and it had a ground wire. Put it back and now no electrical. Also, the rubber grommets - do they go between the wire and the nut?

    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks for the schematic. It helped. Turns out one of the little insulating washers was missing from the temperature gauge. Everything works fine now. Instrument lights are still dim, though. I seem to remember an article in the AOAI magazine about the lights. More research...........

    Thanks, guys - I checked my instrument wiring again and it looks like I didn't connect the red wire to the ammeter properly. Now I have electrical. BUT I keep blowing a fuse in the power window/instrument circuit. I have a white ground wire connecting the temperature gauge to the ammeter. Maybe something's still not right?

    I just got through installing new wood veneer console and dash panels in RQB-2698. Got all the gauges back in and everything looks nice. BUT - no electrical - no lights, nothing. Battery is charged. I did label all the wiring to the gauges and put them back the way they came out. Fuses all look fine. Did I mess up something?

    Would appreciate some help.
