Hi all,
'91 lumber wagon (1/2 ton), 305cid, 5 speed, 10 million miles, almost ready for the boneyard, except it runs great! Seems I have an electrical short somewhere. I run it, shut if off, the next morning the battery is dead. Jump it, run it, next morning it's dead. Pulled the battery out of my '95 and the problem is duplicated. New alternator and ECM this past summer.
I know there's a trick where you disconnect one of the battery cables, put a test lamp between the cable and the post, and start pulling fuses. When the lamp goes out, you start checking the curcuit from the last fuse pulled.
Question is, which side do you do this on, positive or negative. Before I rip into it, I want to make sure.
I'm pretty sure it's the lighting harness in the back, as it appears a band of drunks wired different trailer harnesses up over the years.
And lastly, Thanks, Merry Christmas to all in the group!
Rick K
