    New marketplace truck, most of the electric does not work.

    Huh. That sounds way too easy to work in my case. The way my wiring was put in looks like a blind man did it, I'm gonna full on cut it out and see if I suddenly have a dash again.

    Very close indeed! I added a ground to the dimmer, but couldn't seem to get a good spot on the IP, the way the harness is tucked behind the dash makes it almost impossible... but seeing this kinda helps me justify the work.

    New marketplace truck, most of the electric does not work.

    Hello all, long time no speak. Took a break from my wiring to fix my non-functional rear brakes and fix the slop in my steering. Did some towing with it last night, even with 211k on it, this thing does pretty good! Weirdly enough, while cruising down the highway, for seemingly no reason my dash...

    4 ways are inoperable, so that makes sense. Really makes you wonder why that connector of all things would be melted. At some point I suppose I'll go to the junkyard and clip off a not melted connector and get those going again. Thank you! I did some thinking last night and while my knowledge of...

    WE'RE BACK! Kinda. Wanted to take a picture but boy is it cramped under the dash. G202 was completely disconnected and tucked into the wiring coming out of the back of the fuse block. Why? Only god and the previous owner know. Reconnected it and I now have turn signals and a blower motor, AND...

    This is absolutely stunning. Again, best forum experience I've ever had. Can I give you beer money or something?? Now, I have a scary feeling that g202 is gonna be missing wires or just missing entirely. What would be the best plan of action in that case? Trace every black wire and put them...

    Happy Halloween folks! I come bearing good news! That is (what is left) of my radio harness! For some reason known only to god, the ground was cut out of it. I put a ring connector on and bolted it to the dash and suddenly my gauges seem to read mostly correct AND both power windows work again...

    New marketplace truck, most of the electric does not work.

    Hey all, new update and some advice needed. I got ahold of the guy who sold me the truck, he said that everything in the truck, the power windows, the HVAC, everything worked until he put an aftermarket radio in. I'm going to take it out and try and put the wires back to stock. I don't have the...

    Interesting about the fuse block. It had a broken 25amp in it, replaced it with a new one, didn't notice any changes. Probably related to the rest of my wiring nightmare. That headlight mod looks like something I'm gonna have to do. That would fix at least 50% of my problems. The other 50% would...

    Hi sorry for my radio silence! I'll have to take a look at that distribution block and check it all up but as of right now I have cleaned and/or repaired all my engine grounds, headlight grounds, etc etc. No luck. Frankly, all the grounds look really good.... until you get to the interior, a...

    What is this connector

    I hate the previous owner of this truck, man.

    What is this connector

    Yeah, there's nothing nearby. Previous owner put an edelbrock chrome air cleaner on it so I think im missing a sensor

    What is this connector

    I thought it was for the MAP sensor but I still have one.... so I'm already out of ideas

    For sure! There's nothing more annoying than crawling through a thread for answers and never actually getting any. I've been in Kentucky for the past couple days and I don't get back to STL until next Sunday so I haven't been able to look at the poor truck, but the moment I do, I'll report back...

    @Road Trip That was one of the most helpful forum experiences I've ever had in my entire life.
