Does anyone know where to find the little stainless steel part that is missing from the drivers seat of my 1974 Dodge Coronet. Or what it is called? I've checked, but it's not on my back. ;)

Finally got some time to do the bearings today. It wasn't that difficult, but I have to do everything on my driveway, without a bridge, so that makes it a bit of a challenge. I found out that the right bearing was still the original (and made a scraping noise) and had been leaking, and the left...

:( The fuel sending unit is almost impossible to reach with the fuel tank under the car, so that's going to be a challenge. :( I could barely reach the connector. I know the previous owner installed a new fuel tank and a new sending unit, but he never tested it before installation. I forgot to...

Well, not to be stubborn by any means, but I grounded the wires to the fuel and temperature sending units and the gauges came alive! I measured about 8 volts with a pulse at both wires. It came on every second. But with the wires installed correctly at both units, the gauges went dead again. So...

So I've replaced the burned Molex connector for Anderson PowerPlugs and although it looks nice, it didn't change anything. So I started measuring from the battery, through the voltage regulator, through the bulkhead disconnect and through the fuse box. 12 Volts at the right hand side of the...

Nice car! Welcome from Les Pays-Bas.

They're used in modelling a lot. Like RC cars, boats, etc. Anyway, I've ordered the (white) Anderson Powerplugs. I'll keep this threat updated.

I'll probably will use those Deutsch DTP connectors, my collegue will order them for me. But what about these XT60 connectors? They can handle 60 amps.

Wow, thanks for the help! I really appriciate that. Yes, I do want to put everything back to it's original condition. I'll try to test the gauges with a battery cell, that's a good tip. I hope they're not fried, the warning lamps aren't working eather, but I'll check. How do I do that? Just put...

Thanks for that video! Those Anderson Power Pole connectors look very good, that might be a good fix. At my job (Caterpillar) we use Deutsch Connectors and I can get these very easily with the right pliers and everything. They're used everywhere and we have them with 8 pin connectors, but I have...

So, today I installed a new voltage limiter, but that didn't make a difference. I wonder if it is the correct one. The fuel and temperature gauges still aren't working, together with all the warning lights, like the high beam, parking brake and oil pressure lamp. The dash lights all work...

Okay, I changed the voltage limiter, but found a lot of other things which I will post in this thread: 1974 Dodge Coronet with extra starter button

Sorry, yes, my gauges aren't working either. Along with all the warning lights. Ehm, what is an IVR?

Finally some good weather today, so I took the cluster assembly out and found the voltage limiter and a lot of things that makes me wonder what people are doing to their cars... Anyway, the new limiter looks a bit different than the old one, but I guess this doesn't matter. That conductor (is...

I haven't got the slightest clue of why the previous owner installed those buttons. Just like toolmanmike says, those buttons should be under the hood for service. Actually, they shouldn't be on the car at all. The ignition key works fine. The previous owner was from Belgium, what more can I...

I haven't tried, but I gues it just cranks the engine, because you need a key to for the steering lock and for the ignition. I got a bit of a scare when I pushed the button when I just got the car and was looking under the dash. But can I remove these buttons? There is no need for them and it's...

Found these 2 buttons underneath the steering wheel. The silver one is a direct starter button and the black pull button is to ignite the starter button .... The black wire from the starter button goes directly to the starter and looks like it's supposed to be there. (I removed the red lead...

Found a drawing in my workshop manual and it's supposed to open upwards. Still very clumsy since you have to hold it upwards while re-fueling and taking the fuel cap off and on and locking it with a key.

Sorry, 1974 Dodge Coronet

Hello, I was wondering if the rear license plate bracket is supposed to open upwards to access the fuel filler cap? I find it really difficult to understand why the bracket is opening upwards instead of downwards because if I want to add fuel I have hold the bracket up with one hand and remove...
