1962 C20 wiring problem - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I went throigh the wiring because my Dad had “fixed” it before. So, I got it all figured out only to have the fuel gauge quit after a couple weeks. I spent most of today working on it. I found a break in the wiring harness where it was all neatly bundled up. It’s back together and everything works fine.

Let me tell you all, anytime you touch an old wiring harness expect possible breaks later on. Oh well, I guess thats only to be expected with a 58 year old truck.

All things considered this truck runs great.

Have a good day and be safe.

Yep, wiring and plumbing have that in common. Hey btw, welcome to the forum! I see that was your first post.
