My 71 Datsun 510 out in San Diego

haha i feel it your right charlie69 imma man up Get it done !

Checked Battery And Battery is 100% Whats the Best Way to check the Alternator ?

cleaned it up fixed the wire and connector .also my battery is ran all the way to the trunk so there was a connection in the middle that might have been hitting the frame i cleaned that up made sure its not touching frame or any metal good insulation tape and a cut water hose lol (gotta improvise ) it was already there i placed it wrapped around and in between the connection and any metal. now every thing is clean and hooked up alternator cord fine holding up for the few mile drives i took . Only problem is the Charge light stays ON . gonna take the battery to auto zone get it tested make sure its ok . also I'm going to test the alternator make sure its not blown .

worked like a charm! lights brighter all signals work

any suggestions where to start

i cleaned fuse box put all new fuses none were blown or hot all my lights been brighter car been running great . did a few runs and the cable to alternator fell off looks burnt ill post a pic . oh and i cleaned the battery terminals put a new connector on the positive the other day

was driving earlier by the time i made it home the charge light was On . checked the battery it was in place and fine checked the alternator and the power wire was fried ! just my luck new work for the morning smh . should i strip the wire and put a new piece on it or what ?

yeah the one you sold is exactly like mine and the one i need seen a couple refurb on few sites . thanks

yeah i was thinking about just paying the 400 have it done right . that would just have to wait for 400 days to happen hahahaha nah few weeks but yeah i don't know maybe pull it see what happens

okay thanks I'm doing that now

ok i got everything to work brake lights tail and headlights . it was a matter of adjusting the fuses twisting them into a different position . so it was the fuse box needs to be cleaned . i took it off to soak but there are wires that don't disconnect in the back should i soak those too? the whole fuse box ?
