1 TABLE O ONTENTS WANING: STO Validate the kit contents with the component list before proceeding. This kit is intended to be used in a modified vehicle. lease read this sheet thoroughly and be sure that you understand everything explained on it prior to opening any of the enclosed packages, or before attempting to install any of the components. Once this kit has been opened or a component installed, the kit is not returnable. The enclosed instructions show the connections to typical switches. Before beginning, it is important to consider the following: This kit is broken down into individual sections that are identified by a letter printed on the identification sheet visible through each bag. The order of installation is shown below. The main instruction sheet will show the interface of all the subkits for the complete vehicle. The onnector and Loose iece it contains the connectors and terminals used by all the subkits.

This kit should typically be used in a MOIIE application only. 2. This kit and all accessories that connect to this kit must be rated at 12 volts. 3. This kit supports the use of a high current self-exciting 1-wire alternator or other style internally regulated alternators. An adapter may be necessary in some applications. 4. This kit WILL NOT support the wiring for an ammeter gauge. 5. This kit OES NOT INLUE eadlight, Ignition, or immer switches. See page 3 for a list of optional switch kits available for use with this kit. 6. This kit OES NOT INLUE battery cables. See the American Autowire catalog for optional Battery able kits. 7. There is no set pattern on how the wire is routed to each switch. Wire routing is an individual preference and therefore it is the responsibility of the installer to design the wire routing scheme for the specific vehicle. The important thing about wire routing is to consider the neatest bundle and the shortest distance. Extra wire should be eliminated once the desired routing has been measured. Excess wire should never be coiled and bundled out of the way. 8. There is more wire than required for the circuits in question. With this in mind, each wired circuit should be routed and measured before the wire is cut and terminated. 9. rinted wires will have the same color coding as on the drawings and a circuit description printed on the wire every 3 inches. 10. Each wire requiring termination is identified with it s terminal, which is letter coded. These letter coded terminals are shown in actual size in the loose piece terminal kit Wires are shown approaching the terminal as it would appear before termination. 11. It is recommended that the proper crimp tool be used for the terminal installations. With the correct crimp tool, soldering the termination would not be necessary. owever, when in doubt about the integrety of the termination, it is recommended that the connection be soldered. 12. There are connections within some circuits that are best handled with an in-line splice. The physical location of the splice is up to the installer as it is dependent on the wire routing scheme. It is strongly recommended that any in-line splice connection be soldered before sealing the connection with shrink tubing. Be sure to install the wires through the shrink tubing before crimping and soldering the splice connection. 13. isconnect the battery before installing the wiring kit to prevent any accidental shorting caused by loose bare wire ends Gauge onnection Subkit - ontains wiring for: - Instrument luster Lights - uel Gauge and Sender - Oil ressure Gauge - igh Beam Indicator Light - Engine Water Temperature - Instrument luster Ignition ower E Alternator, Starter, and Ignition Subkit - ontains wiring for: - Ignition Switch - Alternator onnection - Starter onnection - istributor and oil - Main ower onnections onnector and Loose iece it - ontains connectors and terminals used in all subkits Instruction Sheet for American Autowire and cannot be copied or reproduced without express permission from American Autowire. age 1

2 STAT EE! LEASE EA TIS BEOE STATING INSTALLATION! This wiring kit is designed for ease of installation. lease read the guidelines below, BEOE STATING your installation, to guarantee a successful job. Use an appropriate crimping tool, which folds the wings of the open barrel terminals down into the wire, as shown on this page. If you use our crimping tools and correctly crimp the included terminals, soldering is not necessary. If you are unsure about a particular crimp, soldering is recommended. Our factory crimped terminations are installed by GM approved five ton presses, and soldering these terminations is not necessary. The terminals that we supply in our kits, utilize what is known as an crimp. The crimp, in a cross section, will look like the illustration below, when done correctly. end view of un-crimped terminal proper crimp of terminal wire core We carry the following crimping hand tools, to help with your terminal crimping.

7 s used in this installation. This kit contains a supply of terminals to complete the connections to the required switches and light assemblies. We have supplied additional terminals in the event that extra terminals are necessary. Each connection on the following diagrams identifies a specific terminal by a letter code that will correspond to the letter code on the terminals identified below. The terminals below are shown in actual size to help you identify the terminal required for each connection. In some cases, terminals are already installed on the wires. These terminals will be shown in the crimped configuration and will not have a letter code next to the terminal. aw aw aw aw Battery unction Block B Splice clip eadlight connector Tube Alternator boot M N ing sleeves S T 20 American Autowire - All kit designs and instruction sheet illustrations are the sole property of American Autowire and cannot be copied or reproduced without express permission from American Autowire. 1 BAG oute 9 Loose iece it ev 0.0 4/4/2016

8 In line wire splicing. This kit uses in line splices in several of the subkits. This example shows the correct way to execute this splice. 1 Wire stop notch Splice lip After routing wires to be spliced, strip the wires long enough to reach the wire stop in the splice clip. Slide the heat shrink tube over all the wires BEOE installing the splice clip. Be sure the heat shrink tube is of adequate length to completely cover the splice. 2 Splice lip Once the wires are installed into the splice clip, the splice clip can be crimped or compressed to tightly retain the wires. This connection can then be soldered. 3 Slide the shrink tube over the completed splice and center the shrink tube so that none of the splice is exposed. eat the shrink tube to allow the sealant to form around the splice. The shrink tube will conform to the contours of the splice. This is the correct way to seal the splice. Splice lip 3 SQ. mm usible Link 3 SQ. mm usible Link 3 SQ. mm usible Link 3 SQ. mm usible Link 3 SQ. mm usible Link 3 SQ. mm usible Link Splices on the fusible link wires are completed the same way all the other in-line splices are completed. The important fact that is worth reiterating is that the splice must be crimped tightly so that the wires are being solidly held in place. That final joint must then be soldered. 20 American Autowire - All kit designs and instruction sheet illustrations are the sole property of American Autowire and cannot be copied or reproduced without express permission from American Autowire. 2
