- I keep blowing the bottom fuse on the 67 B, w/ positive ground, thus my gauges (speedo and fuel) and blinkers will not work The fuse blows as soon as I turn on the ignition switch. How do I go about

- Disconnect all green wires from that fuse. Switch on ignition. Touch the green wires one at a time to the fuse output. When the fuse blows you have the culprit. Leave that wire disconnected, reconnec

- I started tracing electrical problems this AM on the 67B, which had been blowing the bottom fuse as soon as I turned it on. This effected the fuel gauge, blinkers, heater switch, and wipers. Spent an

- Two green wires shorted together and grounded could be a result of a short or overload in one circuit that melts the insulation in the wiring harness to short the two wires together and to some point

- And yes, you're right I wasn't checking continuity correctly. You pointed out my stupidity without being offensive; maybe you should have been in politics :) If I had only thought what the word "con

- On the face of it that sounds correct to me. An ohmeter will show continuity if its two probes are touched together. So it you touch one to ground and one to a wire it will show any continuity betwee

- One word of caution: never make ohm measurements on a live circuit. Disconnect one of the battery cables before setting the meter to ohms. Bob Donahue (Still stuck in the '50s) Email - bobmgtd@insigh
