This is very strange.....so I am starting to put my LWB back together and without warning all of the sudden when I reconnect the battery to check lights and other systems etc., the horn sounds with about a 3 second interval and the door locks actuate until I turn the ignition.
The engine starts and there are no other faults, I basically have to remove the fuse for the horn, which is the same for the hazards and high beam switch! Don't know the relation to the door locks though!
I haven't started to trouble shoot it yet but.....when I had this thing completely apart I didn't have this problem!
Alarm issue, ground issue, or something that will go away as I put everthing back together, Idono!
OK, I pin pointed it...so for anybody with a LWB, assuming it is wired like mine...you never know, however according to the owners manual the circuit for the horn also includes the hazard lights and the high beam switch!
The only thing I did not remove were the headlights the whole time I was working on it....so recently I took them off to wire city lights into my H4's. Apparently when you remove the headlght assemblys it affects the ground in that circuit, because as soon I put them back in everything was fine again!
As far as the door locks.... I can't figure that one, unless its because i was messing with this thing with the doors open!
Anyway Thanks, Its all good for now...makes me appriciate my '83 and how it lacks all those complicated circuits!
Here are a few more pics.....I getting close now I think, i seem to be putting more and more parts back on it!
Definitly the hard jobs are done now!
I forgot to snap some pics of my headlights before I hung them bank on, but I bought these cool little lght bulb sockets that I tapped in to the back of my H4's! Basically, I tapped into the parking lamp wire in the corner lights so my headlights will have that euro look at dusk when I only have my park lamps on! I think the DII's have that feature!
I also experimented with these tiny but powerfull single LED marker lights off the semi-trailers...they look great! Also wired my Hella 3000's, that was fun!
I'll have to get some night pics!
I've also been getting some of the interrior back in....took me some time to get all the wood trim stain to match...I went with some dark mahogony I had lying around, but after that final coat of polyurethane went on the end result was worth the extra work!
Getting anxious to work on the suspension! Where does the time go!
