This is Buddy not Nancy. At time 2:10, the ground wires you pointed to are for the ground. HOWEVER the main ground cable connects down near the starter motor. Ground cables are very important to the vehicles electrical system. P.S. Keeping these connections clean is very important, as are the battery terminals.

I got my hands on a single drill angle plus and threw it last Saturday on 2nd shift on old wood and shot 591 first time throwing it in league and I have it at 120 grit trucut and it is very forgiving for me I missed left and right by 2 to 3 boards and it would hold and go Brooklyn and hit hard leave a pin and miss left and it would go 40 feet and come in and crush the pocket sending pins flying fast and if you got your hands on a angle plus try some low grit trucut pads from creating the difference and you might like it as much as I do.

@ I removed the hose, and since it was in the middle of the radiator, only I got 3-4 liters of coolant (1 gal), and on internet it was saying its capacity is 7liters. Then I flushed it using distilled water for 3 times with a prestone chemical, and I set it now for a day, and want to flush it again tomorrow and pour in it a good coolant finally I hope I did it correctly
@chrisfreemesser5707
@chrisfreemesser5707 Ай бұрын
@@merdanchee The way I do it is to drain out as much coolant as possible, refill with distilled water, let the engine run until the thermostat opens, then let engine cool. Then I repeat the drain/fill/run process two more times. Finally, I drain one last time, add 1/2 total system capacity concentrated coolant, then top off with distilled water to get ~50% mix

funny thing happened to me and my 73 super. I had this car up and running for a while when it started acting like it was starving for gas. I changed the fuel filter from under the hood, but it didn't help. I figured it was a blocked line, so I decided to remove the line from the tank and low and behold, there was an ancient fuel filter just outside the tank. I later found out that the fuel filter originally went there on the super beetles

A specific time limit? No. When the plastic surlyn coating is chipped/splitting, an increasing number of pins are broken internally, and the pins generally become more "lifeless", then it's time for new ones.

My odometer did not blink...FIATs do that when they detect some sort of communication problem with an electronic module. Try disconnecting your battery for a few minutes. If that doesn't permanently fix it, you may need to do a proxi alignment, which will cause the car to relearn what modules it now has. Neither of my FIATs required this after installing an XTRONS unit though

Hi! Great work with the head unit! My Uconnect 7 unit broke down, black screen with Fiat Logo, works just on the last radio station on which it was before. I bought from Amazon an Boomboost unit, same as xtrons. I have some questions: this unit it only works with engine on or contact on? I cant make it work when i wait in the car with engine off? The blue contact from the Uconnect/car, that it is used for GPS, we don’t Connect it to the new unit, we just hide it behind? Thank You very much!

Oddly I too am working on a 68 beetle… no hard start though. I’m rewiring as the previous owner, well left a dangerous mess. I also was concerned about the lack of a fuse for the high current long run. Always add a fuse as close as possible to the source. My option was to add the fuse at the point where it leaves the regulator before the light and ignition split. Really, the should be a relay for the headlamps so that the switch doesn’t carry the current… thanks for sharing. What triggered all this… My ignition switch wiring had a fuse… 14ga with a 30A in-line and the wiring had melted shorting to the column…

This is B.S. a bad or no ground will NOT turn on brake light period! The ground is only applied to sensor wire on master cylinder when fluid is way low! If fluid is ok the ground wire is not even applied! All these sites saying light on is bad ground is total B.S. you can unplug the sensor and light will still be on so stop with the bad ground crap. Yes there is bad grounds causing all sorts of issues, but a bad or no ground will not make brake light come on, only low fluid will.

Thanks for putting this video together. I just got done installing one of these units in my 2016 Fiat 500X and this video was super helpful. Regarding the two issues you noted, I didn't seem to have them with my setup. My 500X has the Beats audio amp and subwoofer, and the sound quality is great. You mentioned that you might install an amp, and I suspect that would help significantly. I'm not sure if there was an update since you received yours, but I was able to manually set the time on mine. There's a setting to select the source, with the options being network, GPS, and off. If I select off, I'm able to manually set the time.

Seemed like a lame excuse to me at the time, now it's obvious that it was an oversight on their part that was fixable 🤔
