Hey everyone I was wondering if there was anybody close to Quantico Va that could give me a hand with some electrical problems. If so shoot me a pm. thanks

 

What type of issues are you having?

 

I tried to jump the car and the headlight wires fried somehow whoever did the wiring before did a horrible job.

 

Ouch. Time to cut and splice.

 

Yea wiring isn't my strong area. That's y I'm looking for someone fairly close that can lend a hand. I look at wires and get a headache.

 

You sure they weren't bad before? Where'd they burn, at the headlight switch?

 

Wiring is never fun. I never enjoyed it.

 

Yea I bet. Looking for some help here

 

What tools do you have? If wires are melted need to get new wire, connectors, etc. But before all that find out what made them let the magic smoke out.

 

Moto I'm sure they probably were but they've never smoked when i hook cables up to the battery. jl1 yea i kno trying to figure that out right now but my residental expert is kinda tied up up right now so i'm trying to find help else where. I kno i'm going to have to get all new stuff. its only two or three wires. I personally dnt have a *** load of tools at the moment.

 

You can get away with butt connectors for the splice to get you back up and running. The hard connectors would be the ones in the car. A junker might be a good option.

 

bro hmu on facebook or text me i forgot to save your number along with other rx7 ppl so there save a rx7 dude or chick..

anyway hmu i may have a whole harness from one of my 7s i can send you then all you should be able to do is cut match solder heat shrink and enjoy.!

 

So I found out today that is not as bad as i thought. Whoever wired it b4 did some crazy mess becuz the running lights didnt work becuz of the motor. So they added a switch to turn on the running lights but it also controlled the power to the radio. the wires that they ran are the only two that fried. No luck what is ur name on facebook?

 

Do some searching in the 2nd gen section. The headlight harness under the dash burns up, along with the switch when your running lights get too corroded and pull too many amps.

The portion of the harness that normally burns up is replaceable. It's got connectors on both ends. That said, you might want to hit up a salvage yard and see if you can get the headlight switch, and the ~1ft. long harness that plugs into it.

 

I got a new headlight switch today my headlights still work its two wires there that I don't think go there they were be used for something else.

 

Like I said in the previous post it had something to do with the running light not working b4. So i'm going to cut the two burnt wires and rewire the radio to work like its supposed to.

 

Well I got it all figured out thanks everyone for the help
