Sat Feb 18, 2012 3:57 pm

I have a problem with my 54 vert harness! The main harness I believe is correct. Its got the semaphore harness and the top down harness and for the rear domelight. The problems I think are more or less in the headlight harness and the little harness that jumps the ignition to the headlight switch!. It just seems that they maybe 56 harness but the wires dont correspond to a 56 either and they both seem short!! Also for some reason the the wire werks color codes dont match to some degree either! For instance the sema wires on the left is a blue and green and the diagram say blue only and whats the sema coil? .Please help with pics dosent matter if its a vert or not just 54 or early 55 I need them to help me route them properly never did it befor and might be part of my problem with reach. would be awsome..

Heres some pics...

Thanks Mike

Most of what you see here I dont have a clue except for the pos goin from the ignition to the headlight switch! Does anyone see where the turn signal switch wire loom is I see one little harness off the tree that has two wires but it should have three correct? Also take a look at the little individul 3 wire harness I thought for the widshield wiper motor but the original only has two wires!! Anybuddy have any ideas on whats up here..

same harnes as above where the hell does these wiries go tired of thinken my instruction are shit. correct not correct workable.....?

what is this for ????

'm actually a bit frightened to jump into this, but feeling like a moth drawn to flame, and loving your "electricly stuped" title.

Let me just say two things here. Your wiring diagram shows two wires going from the turn signal switch, one to each semaphore. One wire comes in to the switch, that would most likely be a single wire, which comes from the fuse panel.

I take it back, I'm only brave enough to help with that one item. I don't have a 54, never played with semaphores, and don't want to get you pointed into more wrong directions than you already have in front of you.

Good luck!

Looks like 56-57 colors for a bullet car^^^ some other wire colors in your pictures look earlier. I think you have a mix of 54-55 and 56-57 wires, but you can make it all work just fine. The main harness is a convertible and that's all that maters...all the battery/starter/rear wires/vert domelight stuff is all accounted for in the back of the car, so you're in good shape. I went over a bunch of the wires under the hood with you already, hit me up anytime along the way and I'll help.
