In regards to #1, go to FLAPS and look for a package of piggyback spade connectors, ideal for grounds, all brass, no insulation. Has female spade you slide onto ground lug, with two male spade lugs for ground wires. Re #4, they may be for the unused lights in there; the front diff lock, and drive decoupler (left and middle lights, resp.) Jerry McCavitt '86 Syncro GL 15"/OME/Betts
--- 1) What do I do about being out of free spades on the two grounding blocks? 2) I have a factory installed dual battery system that appears to be isolated by a relay under the drivers seat. How do I test that it is functioning properly? ie. isolating the battery and discharging only the cigarette lighter socket located under the passenger's seat that the electric fridge plugs into? I plan on adding a fuse block under the driver's seat for the secondary battery and running my auxiliary equipment to it (Stereo, Fridge, Lighting, etc...) but I'd like to know it's actually isolated correctly first. 3) When I hooked up my power windows (freeing a ground point by temporarily disconnecting my power windows). They would lock and then immediately unlock themselves. Any idea what could be causing this behavior? 4) When running the wiring harness for the windows, mirrors, and door locks I notice two short brown ground wires coming from the diff lock switch which were not connected to anything. I can't figure out what if they were supposed to connect to that they can reach. Any idea where these grounds are supposed to go to? Thanks for any help! Jon
