Does anyone have a good lead on a auto electrician in the Sarasota/Bradenton, FL area? I am building the truck and can not get things to work right, primarily the gauges. Lights are fine, it runns great. The only gauge that works is the Volt meter, Oil P, RPM and H2O dont work.
Any ideas..... I have checked every possible plug, redone questionable connections.
TIA

What gauges do you have? I was helping a fellow builder who had the Autometer gauges and he had daisy chained all of the ground lugs together properly, but forgot to connect the end of the daisy chain to a good chassis ground...

Henry Renaud is in Port Charlotte and just finished building the London Cobra Show car. He knows these things inside and out.

Problem solved, lots of stupid things I mastered :-)), Henry gracefully worked on my dash-gauges for 1:30 and it is all ok now. First time meeting Henry, but a super nice guy. He did not want to get paid..... but we fixed up the beer kitty. Remember guys, nothing is free, not even great help. If you need help with anything FFR, call Henry and be gracious. He is now "My Man"!
