dude. i've been having so many electrical issues with my '85 camaro it's unreal. my stupid self decided to straight wire a fan to a dash switch before knowing ANYTHING about it lol. facebook quickly made me cut the wires before my car caught on fire. I then found your fan video, and now this video because my headlights are flickering horribly. I'm about to completely rewire both, and this is perfect! You have no idea how much this is gonna help me as someone who knew nothing about electricity 2 weeks ago.

As somebody who has about a million hours of their youth invested in a 1985 Camaro, I’m thrilled that you are finding the videos helpful for yours! That Camaro my friends and I used to cruise in, is long gone, but the knowledge I gained from it is with me forever. If you want to learn more about automotive electricity, check out my wiring playlist, there are a few good ones there. This is one that never gets the views I think it should, but I think it’s really helpful if you’re bored ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QCkfFCLa_Jg.htmlsi=Tk1T-MkbvOK-oe9W. Good luck on your project!

THANK YOU for doing a pull switch, I have a 59' CJ5 and just today I got it partially working, but I have been STRUGGLING with this exact style of switch for a Jeep. thank god it just pulls in and out though, I didn't even know they could twist

@ukupunkrock3981 4 месяца назад

Dear Jeremy, I have just finished rewiring my whole damn car and wanted to thank you for your extremely helpful videos, that perfectly explain all the different circuits you'll find on a classic, race or plain old car, in a way that even the amateur newbie (like myself) understands how they work, up to the point of recreating the typical electrical car components. I now have a running, flashing and honking car that's bristling with flip switches and gauges, as well as the envious admiration of my buddies who break a cold sweat when the word electrical is even just mentioned. Thanks again for all the knowledge, inspiration and encouragement. Mahalo!

This is such an amazing comment! ❤ Thank YOU for supporting this channel. I’m so happy that your project is coming together!

Really like how you calmly show and explain the steps of the wiring. Including the little V&A meter was also very cool. Thanks for making and sharing

Just found your channel and it’s great and I have one for you. I’m looking to put a fan on my side by side that sits between the cab and the engine bay. In the summer it will suck cool air from the cab and blow hot air away from the engine. When it’s cold it will do the opposite. And it will have three speeds. I found rocker switches that do each function but I’m at a loss for how to wire them up together. That’s actually how I found your channel.

The best wiring videos I have ever seen your videos have helped me so much thank you 👌👍

@Mike-Olds-1 4 месяца назад

I used the information in your previous videos to help me wire a couple of cars. Good to see you making a new video 👍Thanks

@RogeriusRex 4 месяца назад

Your videos are clean, easy to understand and, best of all, when watched in series they build on each other. I love watching your videos! They're the best. Have you considered expanding the kind of devices to wire? An air-compressor, sub woofer, multiple batteries, water pumps, usb power, backup cameras, that kind of stuff. Your channel is slowly becoming the one stop shop for all automotive wiring.

@WiringRescue 4 месяца назад

Thanks for the kind words! I absolutely will expand into other stuff as money and time allows. And I do actually have one of your ideas in the works. You have to wait and see which one it is! 😊

@RogeriusRex 4 месяца назад

Ah budget. There are plenty of budget videos, like How to solder. How to crimp. Why crimp. Why solder. What do all those different wire ends do. Why use certain wire ends. Which wire is best for which amperage. Whats the difference between a fuse and fusible link. These are all things encountered while doing car stuff and not really understand, even when reading the instructions for a given device. Thanks again for your videos.@@WiringRescue

@Grampalele 4 месяца назад

I love these videos! If I may make a suggestion, though, for the sake of clarity and visibility you might want to avoid using white wire against a white background. It almost disappears. But, keep up the good work! I look forward to future videos....

@WiringRescue 4 месяца назад

Yes! I agree 100% and I’m learning with each video I make. Thanks for watching and the feedback. I appreciate both!

Awesome! I subscribed a while back because you explain auto wiring so clearly. I’ve seen your videos using relays. Could you show how to incorporate relays into this wiring project? That would be very helpful and interesting. Thanks!!

Can you please make videos about sensors

@WiringRescue 4 месяца назад

Absolutely! I actually have a really cool idea for this topic already. Just trying to figure out how to make it happen.

@daves485 4 месяца назад

Great job! I understand when you pull the headlight switch slightly out only the park lights and tail light circuits go on and not the headlights, but if you pull it all the way out the headlights come on and the park light circuit goes off. But the brake light circuit should stay hot? When I pull my 1951 Chevy all the way out the brake light circuit loses power.

@nathanielmoore87 4 месяца назад

This is exactly what I needed. I've been dealing with a wierd issue. I had sealed beams. Lows worked, but highs did not. I assumed it was because one of the bulbs was full of water. I ditched the sealed beams and upgraded to LEDs which have built in switchback DRLs/turn signals. Whole kit should have been plug and play minus the DRLs and turn signals of course, but now the high beams work but the lows do not. 🤔

@simonilett998 4 месяца назад

I think you need to check if the headlamp wiring on your car is positive switched or negative switched. I'm going to guess they are probably negative switched, pretty common on Japanese cars. So, for positive switched headlamps, you will have one ground wire that is common to both high and low beam on each lamp, and the other 2 wires will be separate positive wires that power up independently for high or low beam respectively. Whereas, for negative switched, you will have 1 positive wire that is common/shared by both high and low beam, and 2 separate ground wires which are grounded independently for high or low beam respectively depending on which one (high or low) is selected. Hope this helps👍

@nathanielmoore87 4 месяца назад

@@simonilett998 Thanks!! This is for a Class A motorhome (1990 Fleetwood Bounder to be exact), but your info is still very helpful!! 👍👍

@simonilett998 4 месяца назад

@@nathanielmoore87 No probs, hope it helps👍 An issue you might find with LED headlamps is, they may be wired up to be connected as positive switched, with 1 common ground wire, and 2 positive wires, high + low beam. Being that LED's are polarity sensitive, whereas incandescent filament or halogen filament globes aren't polarity sensitive, you might have to wire in a relay or two to reverse the polarity to use LED lamps, if you happen to find your motor home wiring is set up as negative switched.

@normhowes2975 4 месяца назад

I added LED marine docking lamps (wide flat beams) for fog lamps to a P/U and used a relay triggered from the park lamps. Used park lamps as can shut head lights off still have fog lights. Too bad the truck is undependable for starting.

I have watched many of your videos. I have a question, if you wire the low speed on a wiper switch to a flasher relay will you be able to make intermittent wipers
