[@mindovermatter3988]

I'm actually a high-school dropout, as far as knowing how to wire everything up correctly, choose the right fuse rating and everything else period not to mention the schematics and thought process period but did anyone catch the amperage chart, I would really like to see someone try to push 30 amps through 18 gauge wire or even a hundred and fifty through 10 gauge wire as it states in the chart that is listed in the video. Even I could immediately distinguish that this chart is way off with its amperage to length ratio for 12 volts.

[@grendelum]

one thing i’d add, when you’re at the “how long does each wire need to be?” stage, it really helps to use bits of cheap rope and tape to find the routes that will determine the length, shape and look of the finished harness.

[@claws61821]

Yeah, that's one of those steps that even the sincerely nice helpful people get kinda curse-worthy about leaving out or refusing to in any way advise on. And then they sneer at you for getting the wrong length cable when you had no way to know what the right length was.

[@hannahranga]

@@claws61821 It's also one of those things that's more of an art than a exact science, the trick is to make sure you have too much so you can cut them off at the right length once everything is all laid out.

Helpful tip with the Costco size bags of Zip-Ties is to rip the hole you pull them out of in the center of the bag instead of just ripping off the corner. That way they stay in during transport, and are still easy to pull out of the bag. Stupid little things that make a huge difference in your sanity.

Quick tips: If you would like to use aluminum wire just go two sizes up and make sure you don't have your wires too tight if your in a cold climate. Remember that trying to measure resistance or continuity on a live circuit can damage your meter

[@mycarsanovaify]

Al wire will work harden and break ( usually at the connector point) if there is any vibration. Stick with copper.

[@schlomoshekelstein908]

@@mycarsanovaify copper work hardens as well..

[@daniellau5859]

Eh, resistance would be fine. Itll just max out and not give you a value. But the continuity will most definitely blow it up, yes. Never test continuity on a live circuit over 10a unless you got one of those extensions that can take the brunt of the amperage

[@Curt_Sampson]

@@daniellau5859 Continuity and resistance are the same measurement (that's why they're usually on the same dial setting of a multimeter); continuity just beeps if resistance is below a certain value. Don't use either (or the diode check setting) on a live circuit. And not only can trying to measure resistance/continuity/diode on a live circuit damage your meter, but may also cause strange things to happen in the circuit, since it's injecting electricity to measure the resistance/etc. Or sometimes even damage the circuit, depending on what it is and at what points you're measuring it.

[@enb3810]

Just don't use aluminum wire wtf. Are you try to sabotage him?

[@evank7858]

Great Content! When working with connectors, avoid orienting them vertically, as this can allow more opportunities for moisture to eventually seep in. On this note, keep the split in the "gutter" tubing on the bottom of your harness to allow gravity to help keep out moisture. Additionally, be mindful of wiring coming out and immediately bending out of the connector. Keeping an inch or two of slack before a bend will keep the torsion forces off of the connections.

The little Crème brûlée gas torches are great for heat shrink, don't get too close though. Great video, I'm an auto electrician by trade and the way you do stuff is how it should be done on custom harnesses, nice work. You need decent crimpers though, if you're going to splash out get a set of ratchet crimpers and a jaw kit that'll cover everything from cheap plastic crap to the little tiny specialised ones in the weatherproof connectors.

The long talks our team had when planning our harness paid off when we dropped 7 pounds from the previous year.

Idk what I expected but this is a really great video. I’ve already wired my car using the same methods you highlighted after learning the hard way through making tons of mistakes. Through my wiring journey, I’ve made every mistake you can make from using cheap CCA wire, not using a diagram and having major circuit issues, and other major errors I wish I had known about wire types (SXL, GXL, TXL) and quality fuse/relay blocks beforehand. Having this video beforehand would have probably saved me 100 hours of labor and several hundred dollars in supplies. For anyone watching, take it from someone who has done this repeatedly.

[@SacUnDruz]

Hey Matt, fellow FSAE-racecar enthusiast and retired member here. Really appreciated this video.But I think there are some points that I don't totally agree with. Those crimps you are using are OK, but not for ultra high longevity. I usally use those that also crimp over the insulation of the wire to make the crimp even stronger and to prevent further failure-points. Copper usually doens't like to bend over and over again (work hardening) and the wires will brake off after some time if they have a lot of movement in them - usually this isn't the case, but sometimes it does and then you have to re-crimp them every now and then. We had one single dude in our FSAE team that did all the wiring of the car and he made it after the guidelines of NASA. After he was finished the wiring was almost the nicest part of the whole car. Super-clean and super compact. Still it wasn't like we didn't have any wiring problems and so we had to retire from a few races because we lost some stupid sensor just before a race.... Happens even to the best of us -.- Keep the videos coming - I'll be watching :D

The thing I’ve learned pretty recently that has seemed pretty amazing is “solder seal” it’s heat shrink and solder in one and it’s easier to apply than crimping. Love em

I have been an electronics tecnician since 1969 and you have done a good job here. The grounding section is the one so many people just don't know. This will help many out more than they know. I would suggest using a heat gun on shrink tubing. I have seen people catch the shrink on fire with a lighter. Of course as soon as they get comfortable with the way it shrinks and when to remove the heat there's can do a great job. I have even used my soldering iron before. Keep up the good work. Everything I have heard you say is very helpful for most people. I use the sealing shrink on cars because of the environment. It really works great. 👍👍👍👍👍😁👍👍👍👍😁😁💥💥

Great video, will add that for the insulated crimp on terminals you were using the wrong crimper, hence why your crimps wouldn't hold and the plastic sheath would slide off.

For easily testing continuity with even a cheap multimeter you can use the "diode" option. I have a 10€ multimeter and it has the "diode" function. Simple turn the function on, stick the probes between whatever you are checking continuity on, and the meter should make a BEEP or flash some lights. No need to read the screen.

[@SkylineFTW97]

Even my old cheapo Harbor Freight one has it. In it's defense, I've used it side by side with a friend's fancy Fluke multimeter and it reads close enough that I'm just gonna keep using this one.

It handles diagnostic work on the high voltage circuits of the hybrids I sometimes work on fine enough.

He meant: If you only need 6 fuses, but you can only find a 10 fuse box---- then just go with the box with "too many fuses"... and just have some extra. (same thing with the big connector). Using the correct size fuse the wire requires is a given.

I'm sure that what he meant was if you don't know exactly how much current you need, err on the high side ("use too much fuse"). Later, when you choose wire size, you will (if you're following his guide) choose wire with at least enough capacity for the current rating of that fuse, and everything will work safely.

You’re fantastic, I’m re-wiring my car and have no idea what I’m doing. Thank you for making it a little more understandable 😄

Good timing...just came across this. I have a restored 1965 Mercedes 230SL...everything except the wiring. It uses the old style German torpedo fuses, which I really hate. Been thinking of selling the car...but if I decide to hang onto it, the plan is to upgrade to modern fuses and new wiring. Luckily, its a small car without any computers or other modern-day inconveniences. I absolutely agree with using quality components...if you're going to this much trouble, no need to scrimp with knockoffs from you know where.

Pretty solid how to. If you need non insulated connectors and can't find the ones you need for what ever reason, you can just heat up the plastic ferrule with a lighter and pull it off.

I had a 1971 Land Rover and all the lights started playing up. It was corroded connectors, corroded wires and bad earthing to the chassis. Dead easy. I bought the correct wire size, all black and used idents for identification as we did in electrical engineering, no multiple wire colours, and bought ring and bullet connectors and a proper spring loaded crimping tool. I already had the proper wire strippers and cutters from when I worked in electrical engineering. Interesting you say about the wire type, I used an ordinary 100m reel of wire. No problems. Tie down the wires and use cable ties (zip ties) to loom them together so no abrasion. Troubleshooting should not be needed if you wire it correctly.

Just considering to rewire a vehicle is daunting enough - thank you for breaking down the process with some great tips
