Re: Helping a friend of mine with the wiring on his truck

Careful not to let those unterminated wires hang when you send it up on the hoist or the electrons will run out

Thanks Eric. He is doing a good job on it as far as I'm concerned.

No battery in it so the only electrons that will escape is what's in the wires.....

That's all new wired so no worries. They have yet to be primed, but that's simple enough to do. Usually not much air gets into the sheathing

Real interesting that priming business. I had never quite thought of it that way, though after I installed all new wiring, my first notice was the AM radio, oh the glory. Oh wait, I meant my turn signal switch was acting up. Next thing I knew everything worked. Would have been a perfect day if not for the no miles rebuilt 400TH fail.
