    I'm going to start one once my lift gets put on. It'll be a much slower build than some of you guys' lol but I figure I have enough wheeling photos/videos to keep it interesting.

    One of those things I'll probably buy a 12 pack of beer one night on a weekend and power through, then make a bunch of corrections the next day lol

    But really that just means I'm free to wheel whenever.

    Just take it off one massive jump then you'll be good to replace them :D
    Not always. Prime example;
    My start clutch cancel switch has 3 wires. White, black/yellow and black/red. The white is ground to start car, black yellow is positive, and black/red is ground for button light

    A test light is you're friend. I highly recommend getting one
    Shamelessly plugging I see. Time to start all the BS :drevil:

    image.jpg I need help.

    Wired to the DRL fuse and they were a constant on. So that's not working. Found the DRL plug at the light and it has 3 wires. I don't have a multimeter.

    Which wire? :annoyed::frusty:

    Sounds like one wire is always hot (probably runs to a relay) and the others operate the lights. This is where a nice cheap test light comes in handy because you can tell which ones are which.

    What I'd recommend is get choppy and snip all 3. Next ground 1 light. Take the positive of that light and touch it to each stripped wire while the car is off. If any of them light it, don't use that wire. Next do the same with the car and DRL's on. If only one of the remaining wires lights it then that is the one you use. You essentially make you're own test light this way using the lights. Just don't permanently attach any wires together until you know which ones to use. Just tap them and secure them with your fingers. No you will not get jolted. If that happens you fucked up lol

    If 2 light it when you turn the car on then you're screwed and need to give it to me forever :D
