I am lost with 12volt wiring. I have an '84 massey compact with headlights, and two rear lights- a blinker and spotlight. The spotlight did not work upon purchase. Here are the facts, I would really appreciate some help:
1) The wire to the spotlight was in terrible shape, so I pulled it all out. Coming out of the light is one red and one black wire. I hooked it to my battery charger and the light works.
2) under the seat is the junction of wires: there are four female connectors. Two in the middle are joined by plastic, the two outside are free hanging. Currently the (working) orange light requires its red wire plugged into either of the middle connectors. The black wire was connected to the outer female, but I have noticed the light works with out the outer connection (?)
3) I strung new wires from the junction to the nonworking spot light. No luck. I noticed that the working blinker seems to have an extra female connector unused (for adding lights?)
Help! What to do next! /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
