brake controller & "fog" lights....
Hi All
I'm about to install a Prodigy electric brake controller on my '79 FC 33 for my car trailer, and was wondering if anyone could recommend the "simplest" way. It looks like I should be able to pick up the 12v. feed from one of the circuit breakers in front of the steering column, and possibly the ground in that same area. Any recommendations for circuit breaker choice? Is the brake light switch right there under the floor somewhere? What is the best way of routing the feed back to the "Bargman type" connector in the rear? ....under the chassis or is there a another place to run wires to the back? My plans are to make it a 12 gauge stranded wire. An earlier look under the bed at the rear showed me where the existing wires came in to the plug, but I don't remember if they came through the floor, or from behind the water heater. I'm assuming that the connecter is the standard pin configuration, w/just the brake wire unused (circuit schem. shows 5 pins used and it's a 6 pin connector). I also just noticed that my "fog" lights no longer come on when the dash toggle is thrown. I know when I picked it up that they worked. I unscrewed and lifted the dash to see if a wire had fallen off, but both wires are attached. The schematic shows a relay that pulls in the feed to the lights....can anyone tell me where the relay is located?? Hoping that someone has been through one or both of these issues before..... Thanx in advance Steve George '79 FC 33 Lunenburg, MA |
