Don Ridley Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Maybe a damaged wire touching the body. Trace the wires in the engine bay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbosky Posted May 17, 2022 Author Share Posted May 17, 2022 Was thinking of checking each wire at the headlight switch to ground, but didn’t have a wiring diagram to know which wire goes to what. Guess I’ll try to come up with a manual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Ridley Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 I am a huge fan of wiring diagrams, but you are looking for a bare wire so the diagram may not be very helpful. The diagram will show all the loads on the circuit and may help isolate parts of the sircuit. But I think you should start at the headlights and look for stray wire strands. Unplug the bulbs and measure the resistance between the terminals in the socket and look for a short (0 ohms). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbosky Posted May 20, 2022 Author Share Posted May 20, 2022 thanks, but I was thinking of ohming to ground on each wire on the head light switch or using a 12v bulb 12 v positive on one side and checking each headlight switch wire for a ground with the other side. I figured if I had a diagram I’d know which way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbosky Posted May 21, 2022 Author Share Posted May 21, 2022 Found that the small orange/black wire on headlight switch is shorting out. Couldn’t find anything. Gonna need a wiring diagram for the lights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
