It looks like I connected the red fused wire on the Speedbox to the green wire on the Lambda counter harness, and the black ground wire of the Speedbox to the black ground wire of the door buzzer...

I like the new approach to the locks. If I ever overhaul a system of my car and try to make it custom, that would be my first choice. I think it could be made orders of magnitude more reliable with a...

It was used in the movie cars, but not really seen in the movie itself.

One of the interesting things about working on a replica of the movie cars is that there's dozens of item details that...

According to this article, the Electrogenic kit is $110,000: https://supercarblondie.com/delorean-road-ready-costs/

Even if that is the "installed" price, it seems significantly more expensive...

I actually don't think this problem exists.

Based on the one kit that does have a price on the website, my guess is that this would be priced at $40k. And I would assume maybe another $20k to get it swapped in for the PRV.

A Tesla small...

I agree with price being the main (or maybe Only) factor. I would really be curious what portion of owners would swap to electric if it could be done at similar time and cost to an ICE swap; I would...

Your DeLorean heat/AC explanation video was super helpful for me to see and visualize the system. thanks for taking the time to make it! Looking forward to the next updates.

The specs on the site indicate it should be the same power for the classic white and modern white.

I would test the bulbs on a bench power supply with 12 volts and see what they're drawing for...

I am pretty happy with the Speedbox.

It seems to catch a GPS signal much faster than my hobby electronics (Adafruit) Back to the Future style GPS speedometer. The speedbox is also completely...

I will definitely check there!

I always ask before I try to fix something myself because there is so much experience here. I am super new to car work and I feel like half the time I come up with a...

Thanks for the great writeup and video, CFI & DeLoreanTech!

I just received a Speedbox and am in the process of installing it. If past experience holds, this 1 to 1.5 hour job should take me 3 to...

I think I read that the DeLorean was initially planned to have a radial engine (though of course this could be urban legend as well). I think there are some helicopters that also use radial engines,...

Roughly the same price if you don't have one to return, the Ultima R612473B also works: https://www.oreillyauto.com/detail/c/ultima/ultima-starter-remanufactured/oat0/r612473b?q=ULT+R612473B&pos=0

Per this document, it seems it is now legally established fact that the things hanging off the back of the BTTF car are "thrusters", and not vents like we all assumed. This explains how the car got...

Thanks Bill, that's great to hear. I am just trying to reconcile an estimate I got about a year ago from a conversion company (240 hours) which was for some mix-and-match components for...

That was very informative Bill, thanks for making it. It's so much easier to understand when seeing it in 3D rather than the 2D pictures in the workshop manual.

When looking at the wiring video, I...

Thanks! My desire to remove it is mostly due to it being connected to the throttle cable. Given it was malfunctioning, I worried it was a safety risk. But this voltage quirk was uncovered as I began...

Interesting about the fuel pump! My car has a Carter P60424 fuel pump from '81 Volkswagen Jetta, which was noted as looking small by a DeLorean tech but seems to be working OK since it was installed...

My previous owner installed a cruise control system which doesn't have any identifying branding on it but my best guess is it is the AudioVox CCS100. It never worked since I owned the car, so a while...

Perfect, thank you! And yes, for the insulation, I will look for a clever trick someone has posted a video or diagram about.

If a car already had an installation with the "vampire" (or "T-tap" I think they are called) clips, is it as simple as cutting off the spade and T-tap and soldering that wire around the straight...

I don't know how to tag here, but I think @jangell mentioned that he met someone recently with this swap.

Test scenario:
- Jumpered the Blue/Black to the Black on the otherwise empty Hot Start Relay.
- Disconnected the white/yellow wire on the ballast resistor.

Nothing comes out of the Cold Start...

I have not :-) I am new to all of this, but thanks to the manual I think I can pick it out of a lineup now. I've only ever done simple and purely-electrical stuff so far. This will be my first step...
