    Diagnosis MOPAR Charging System

    ...promotes as a “shunt wire” bypass is nothing new, has been floating around for decades before DDG. It’s a lazy conflation of the MAD Electrical approach, but leaving the original charge path in place, circumventing the original circuit protection. As for this shunt wire bypass “Making...

    Circuit Protection and the "Shunt wire" by-pass

    SOME “good information”, bulkhead by-pass maybe. The problem with the MAD article that everyone likes to promote as proof that all Chrysler ammeters will spontaneously combust for no reason whatsoever, most readers miss the part about the article stating it specifically addresses the...

    BYPASS the AMMETER? (1969 A12)

    Never ceases to amaze how these old threads keep coming back to life with the same misinformation again and again. Mad electrical again, really? Missed this one. “No chance of any flames” with the “shunt wire” bypass? This described parallel alternator to battery wire run defeats any/all...

    Would You???

    I had an all original 71 gt 351c 4v in 1991. It was one of the nicest condition "old cars" I've ever had. Some ownership notes- I agree it's a "wallower" compared to the B body cars I've owned. It's hard as hell to get the *** end up like the above photos. I could only manage to get mine...

    BYPASS the AMMETER? (1969 A12)

    You are correct.......I often wonder WHY these old threads never die but continue to live in infamy (??).......a possible reason is the concept in not understanding in the first place .....or.....the contributors just want to reiterate the same concept, time after time to show their cruise...

    GAUGE CLUSTER RESTORATION Aug2022

    I do not offer the volt gauge. I recommend keeping the original look as well as using the MAD Electrical to charge without ALL the AMPS going through the bulkhead/gauge which, as you know, burns Mopars down. I use the MAD Electrical and then buy an inexpensive mini solid state volt meter to plug...

    Found this writeup on how to convert your Amp gauge to a Volt meter.

    For my 67 Charger, my ammeter gauge is working fine I doubt if I can find a voltmeter that could be a close match. I've already upgraded the headlights to LED and plan on doing the same for all the bulbs in the car. That should have less of a draw on the cars wiring. Now what if some relays...

    Older movies you watched lately.....?

    Caught 2 of TCM's Thursday Halloween specials- The 1935 "Bride Of Frankenstein" (which was surprisingly good with also surprisingly good effects considering the time). The final "mad scientist" scene is GREAT if you like period electrical gadgets. and "The Other" from 1972. The host used the...

    O Hey There

    Hi folks, the welcome email suggested a post...so ah...here I am :) As of 3 weeks ago, I'm the lucky recipient of a mostly original 69 Super Bee w/ 383 & 3 speed auto. I'm fairly handy with modern cars and have been a life long fan of WRC and the fun junk that comes with it. I've never...

    Overcharging battery to a little over 15v

    I posted this in electrical but didn't get much response, trying here. Having a little overcharging problem, 69 RR 383 4 speed, all new wiring for the whole car with the MAD wiring. At idle I get 14.4v to 14.5v on Dakota Digital gauges (matches volt meter at battery), when revved to 4000rpm I...

    Holley Sniper and Hyperspark

    About the Mad Electrical bypass? Just a few. Do a search on “ammeter”, plenty of past threads here on the subject, lots of opinions and some facts. I’m running 130amp alternators, lots of added electrical loads (Including a Snipper/Hyperspark), correctly loaded on the alternator side of the...

    Did you retain the original wiring to the ammeter and run and additional heavier gage wire from the alternator to the battery?

    Alternator fields shorted together?

    Forget the OHM's. You need to test the circuit under load. It should only take 20 to 30 minutes to check it. Your problem is a constant issue which makes it easier to diagnose.

    1977 Cordoba Windshield Wiper issue

    @Nacho-RT74 I agree with you. I don't see how the spring can grab if the wedge is in between the spring. I think it should be on the right side because during wiping the motor spins clockwise which would cause it to spring to grab the shaft. The cam needs to be longer at this time so it...

    Alternator fields shorted together?

    ...topped off so it sounds like I’m ok there. It’s a ‘69 charger and putting it together I replaced the engine harness and did the MAD electrical amp gauge bypass, and other then the usual issues with the bulkhead, the rest of it was ok. The keys switch was replaced this last summer while...
