Hey Guys...I just inherited a 59 TR3A, and I was trying to get the turn signals to work...long story short...I found myself poking around under the dash to check the light switch and I was greeted by a clump of wires that looked like a bowl of spaghetti, and much of it held together with alligator clips, some bare wires twisted together without even so much as electrical tape to protect the "splicing"...and other creative methods such as using masking tape. I should really post a picture just for your entertainment.
Something tells me that I should probably rewire the entire car.
An any rate, a couple of the alligator clips were linked together and attached to the ignition switch. As I was fumbling around, I must have somehow disturbed this wiring masterpiece...and now, when I turn the key, nothin' happens. No red light, no sound, nothin. So, my first goal is to simply rewire the ignition switch and get the girl started. Can anyone out there tell me what wire goes where...etc....a picture perhaps...or a manual...I'm not seeing in the manual I'm currently using.
As for the turn signals...ain't no turning going on until I get her started again. She was running beautifully last evening as sunset!
