72 TA : New Project

[njsteve]

Spoke with both M&H and American Autowire today.

American Autowire is working on getting me a replacement harness. They said it is possible that it was put together wrong, without a resistor wire, a few years ago when I originally purchased it. (Luckily I saved the invoice) They seem to be very attentive to customer needs and it looks like they are going to send me a new harness so I can swap it out and return the old one so they can dissect it.

M&H, the makers of the SE breakerless conversion indicated that you should only run the lower voltage (9 volts) to their unit when running and not a full 12 volt load because it will eventually burn out the unit. They agreed that running the ballast resistor is a good thing to do for the time being.
