Hi everyone,
I am a good friend of felix_29 and we are trying to get his rheostat situation figured out. At one time the lights on his dash were coming on full. As of a few days ago they are nearly dark until you turn the rheostat to the last little bit and it comes on very dim.
He is interested in getting me to make it so it is always on full when he turns on the lights.
Can anyone please let me know of what sections of the rheostat wiring I need to modify and any parts I require, such as resistors etc..
I am very excellend at soldering and have helped many friends with car modifications on interiors over the years. I just need a good explanation of what wires need to be jumped and what needs to be done. Attached is a photo of what his actual rheostat looks like in its current form. This is of the proper viewpoint on the driver side of the shifter. I have spent a few hours searching the forums and google and not a single things comes up other then somone saying I jumped it with a resistor. Not a proper explanation at all!
Thanks!12455
