Electrical Shenanigans (Thank You Rodents) - 1971 Chrysler New Yorker 

That’s a Denso gear reduction starter that you installed on the car. They are absolutely the best starter ever made. When the contacts finally wear out in one, which usually takes about 150,000 miles, all you have to do is pop the three small bolts that hold the plunger in and the two contacts are under the plunger and easily replaced. After 600,000 miles on one I’ve only put three sets of contacts in mine. They’ve run those Denso starters on many Toyotas for decades as well as other vehicles. If you ever hear one just “click” when you turn the key to start it’s just the $10 contacts inside. Guaranteed. 👍for the content.

Epic video, dude. Long, but interesting and satisfying. Almost like a full-length nature documentary😊 I'm also a big fan of 60s-70s American land yachts --Chryslers, Lincolns, and Pontiacs (the '65 Bonneville gives me the chills!)

Great work! Glad to see it’s going to someone who can complete the rescue.

I was inspired to do some electrical work of my own by this video. Replacing an overhead console/compass on my own car. So, yeah! 👍👍 And I've been putting it off for months, thank you for inspiring me. 😁 It definitely will be sad to see the New Yorker go. I'll always be a fan of those big land yachts. I had a chance a few years ago to buy a 1973 Coupe DeVille with 53,000 original miles on it from the original owner and I've been regretting it ever since 😫😫 Ohhh!!! Anywho....awesome video! Great work! Thank you for sharing!!

I still have my grandfathers babysitters 1950 Plymouth Coupe...26,000 original miles...sittin in our polebarn for over 40 years...only started every 5 to 10 years...the original dealer metal sales plate still on car....it was "Swedes Service" how cool is that....im so amazed...

That weld on the exhaust by the starter is fricking epic you should take credit for that

Oh, and congrats on the sale. Going to a good home and electrical work can be a pain even on beasts with minimal analog stuff... never mind this new digital crap. Great explanations...

you are one of my very favorites to watch...i love ur old and new school style!...i wish you worked on different vehicles tho..i loved the 1969 Olds convertible...i like GM ..and some Mopar i like...Ford is gross mainly..i dont watch ford..maybe 60s Lincoln yes...besides my great grandma was full Swede..i have a friend who is full Swede....i adore Swedish people....keep up the great youtube videos..ur just great!

Good job

Had a 73 Monaco a liked it until I fired over some train tracks at about 50 mph and bent the subframe up! Two door beast. Brown with tan interior. She had some quarter panel rust but not to bad. That was in 1988 timeframe. That whiny Chrysler geared started. A sound all its own... fit 6 easily...

That melted plug on the AC control system is a common problem in the Chrysler Corporation cars and trucks with the simple control system. The cars that came with the optional automatic temperature control systems had completely different control circuitry. The power switch in the simple systems for the fan circuit has inadequate contact surface area resulting in excessive heat build-up when the fan is operated on high speed. Chrysler should have used a separate relay to handle the high fan speed current to the fan motor. That would have prevented the melt-down. Replacing the switch should cure the problem for now. Be sure to clean the female contacts in the plug shell when replacing the switch. Any corrosion there will make the problem recur more qu9ckly. In some cases the contact(s) may need to be re-tensioned or even replaced.

You brokea my camera. Heavy weights

Radio would need to be grounded to work... you plugged in positive and the speakers... the chassis bolted in would be the ground. Worth a revisit

😁😁👍👍

One and a half hours of electrical gremlins! Oh yes! My second worst thing to work on, the first being RUST! Having factory wiring helps atleast.

The biggest cars that hangs around these naked of the woods is the 1984 Chrysler Fifth Avenue. Mostly 80s and partial 90's Due to the senier citizens of the community ....Everyone is welcome to visit 1 of the Chrysler's familes ..i'm sure their is alot in the united states ..

Out of curiosity, I saw the radio power was one wire (I could be wrong). Do those old units need to have a ground of some sort to work? Also, some of those old units have a fuse built into them. If you get the wild hare to look it over, maybe that could be a problem? Just guessing... OH, and great video Swede! Very informative and great to learn how to do diagnostic work for the younger audience members.

heavy weights ;)

mopar starters are garbage!!!! very smart to upgrade..for sure!!!
