I need some wire replacements like the Trans kick-down switch wire and other similar looking wires under the hood and for some lights. I'd like to get it by the spool but what is a general gage size? I know I'll need different colors too.
sensors generally get 12-14 ga anything that carries serious amps is probably 10 ga
and if its for a starter or alternator, or battery it is probably significantly heavier gauge, if your replacing a broken wire you can of course measure to find the old gauge size http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/amps-wire-gauge-d_730.html
Grumpy, do you have insomnia too? LOL!
I'm getting stupid in my old age. I have two of those gauge wheels I got at Eastwood a few years ago, one is 3 ft. from me right now!
The other day I noticed a bare wire coming out of a 2 wire plug in the back of the alt. it was so thin I thought it was just one strand of wire out of a whole twist of wires. I took it apart to find the whole wire was just one very, very thin silver hard wire (positive charged).
I found that the kick-down from the Trans goes to a box behind the gas pedal but the entire wire is gone.
