Chally won't turn over
« on: September 20, 2006 - 07:37:41 PM »
I Removed my wiring harness last week to clean it up etc. and now I have to move the car.  I put the harness back in along with the steering wheel - hooked up the steering wheel harness and went to start the cat - nothing!  I also took out the inst. panel and all the instruments.  Do I have to connect the amp meter wires together (since the amp meter is removed) to complete the starting circuit??  If I remember my H.S. electricity class - the amp meter is in series with the circuit and if not connected, the circuit will be open.  what do you folks think???
Thanks

You need the amp meter wiring connected.  Make sure you disconnect the battery first.

Was just thinking - do I have to have the amp meter in the circuit or can I just connect the wires going to it together?????
