Re: Diablo 3.0 Power Options
 
Not related to power options but it's kicking my butt!! I am trying to install all new toggle switches but somehow lost power to the switches. I downloaded and printed the wiring diagrams on the forum but still cant make heads or tails out of this. I have power to the ignition but nothing to any of the toggles. Are the switches powered off the ignition key fob?

Does anyone know where the main power comes into the toggle switches??????

Check your fuses Gin under the dash , on the right side behind the stereo, right at the gunnel area. You probably blew one there.

Yeah I checked them and replaced one. I noticed that I have two wires off my ignition switch going no where which may just have broken off with me fussing. One is red/pink which I believe is accessory ignition and the other orange w a but fuse mid line. Both have going nowhere. Then I have an orange and white coming in to nothing along with its black ground.

Thats PERFECT Larry! Thanks for all your help!! Fingers crossed. I have a sneaking suspicion that it may be the fuse block. Looks original and kinda cruddy. May head to West Marine for a new ATC Blue Sea fuse block after tracing these wires.

That is exactly what I have planned too. A guy can't find glass fuses very easy anymore in a lot of places , and I never liked them anyway.

Took her out for about 2 hours of solid tubing yesterday and boy what a great time we had! She is running solid and the issue of smoke and high temps is behind us. However, she still will not break the 33-36 MPH mark. This morning I removed the fuel filter at the carb and did notice some crud in there. Not a ton to cause a blockage but perhaps enough to hinder fuel delivery at WOT. Butt-head me removed the fuel filter and am now second guessing which way it goes in. Almost positive it goes in with the closed flat end out and the open end facing into the carb? YES?? no?? Ugggg
