I need some advice for troubleshooting and fixing the wiring on my dad’s ’64 GT since I’m not very confident in my skills in this area.
I think that in the process of reinstalling the correct parking brake handle assembly that my dad had completely removed earlier, I think I may have inadvertently disturbed some wiring under the dash and now the car is completely dead. No brake lights, headlights, nothing.
Confirmed that the battery is indeed fully charged.
First thing, my dad converted from an ammeter to a voltmeter.
There is a wire hanging down that is just bare stranded wire that is just loosely wrapped with red electrical tape.
I’m guessing that in the process of converting to the voltmeter he had something connected wrong and fried the wire. I can follow it up to going into the large, original tape wrapped wiring harness.
The loose end I don’t know where it should go.
Thanks for any advice.
