Steady progress, and a milestone

Got in another hours work on the harness last night before my gig. Got the switches in the dash wired in, and ran the wires to the back end of the car. No time tonight, but tomorrow I'll get the fuse box-control box-generator done. Guessing now that Saturday should see the wires in place and tested out.

Big milestone last night was the pickup of my TR4 by the new owner. I am now officially a 1-LBC household. Slightly sad to see it go, but I'm much happier with the Tunebug. Onward we press...

When you first test, be sure to leave either the positive or negative cable on the battery loose just in case you have a problem and need to disconnect in a hurry. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cryin.gif

A few pics of the TR4 heading out. What is it with me and LBCs and bad weather. It was pouring rain last night as he loaded up. The new owner had a nice truck, complete with winch to pull the car up. Cool, I want one!

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/iagree.gif Good news on your progress. You might also consider either probing with an ohmmeter between the leads to check for shorts, or sticking a light bulb in series before connecting it the first time, so if the bulb lights and nothing is turned on, then you'll know something is wrong. Good luck! You'll be enjoying the fair weather soon, and you'll have the top down too. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
