    M35a2 Wiring Harness Trouble

    I made some errors in my previous posting #10; these have been corrected. I also posted some photos from my Crackberry phone of the starter & solenoid to explain where all the wires go.

    M35a2 Wiring Harness Trouble

    No THANK YOU for the photos! Seeing is much easier than trying to decipher written instructions. But together I think we pretty much nailed it down. Great pics!

    M35a2 Wiring Harness Trouble

    Connect the other Plug #2 to the positive voltage output on your alternator, and plug #1 to the alternator switch wire (if you still use the stock Deuce alternator). On the passenger-side headlight, while looking at the back of the headlight housing, plug #17 will mount to the top left...

    M35a2 Wiring Harness Trouble

    Now on my Deuce, my starter solenoid might differ from yours. The starter solenoid resides on top of the starter itself, they are bolted together. Look at the front of the solenoid: mine has 3 large stud bosses, 2 facing forward (horizontal) & one that is in the middle facing...

    M35a2 Wiring Harness Trouble

    Get underneath your truck, and you should see a branch still dangling down that has a couple of plugs and a large metal connector assembly.

    M35a2 Wiring Harness Trouble

    Inside the cab, run the strand that has wire plugs #40, 17, 27, 28, 33, 36, and the two 2-pin plugs on top of the metal cab brace that resides above the steering column; these will go to the gauge cluster & other switches, as delineated below. #85: Low air pressure buzzer #27A, 27A: Front drive...

    M35a2 Wiring Harness Trouble

    I'm in the process of replacing the front wiring harness, and I took notes (and drew pics, but only I can interpret my chicken-scratching :-D). Start with the first photo posted by M35A2-AZ above: where the wiring harness goes into the cab, find the cab-related portion and feed it through the...
