Hi Martyn

I need a favour!, have you still got the GM service manuals for the Camaro you had off of me?

I need some electrical information regarding lights, wipers etc but for starters I need to know what circuits all the fuses on the R/H side of the engine bay protect and which fuse is which. Unfortunately I don't have any paperwork, service books etc for the car to check myself.

Any help would be good.

I have a full set of service manuals for an LS1 4th gen, I got them from work as they were proping someones monitor up...

And I'm a bit more local than F-Body if it helps at all...

Good man,  any chance of borrowing the one that covers wiring this weekend please?

I'm putting in a battery isloator first to separate the original loom off from the rest of the car to see if that fixes the problem; if it does then I can start removing the individual circuits that we don't need and fix any that we do need.

If it doesn't fix the problem then we know the problem is somewhere within the MSD ignition/starter motor/alternator circuit.

Sort of nice to have something to do

I remember my old Hawk used to run off of 2 x 30A fuses !

<sigh>

Thanks Martyn, that will do initially I hope, at least I can identify the fuses from that - although the temptation to go at it all with a pair of sidecutters is almost overwhelming

Martyn, could you look up the wiring colours/designation for the horn and wipers coming out of the steering wheel assembly for me and for the plug that goes into the electric windows motor via the door switch in the door.

Thanks

Ray
