i do have one on my work bench,
check page 166 out on my 87 evtm , its only a 4wire connector.
you do have two fuses though, and its possible one may be blown
i can take mine and open it up if you do the same and call me (see diy link) and we can troubleshoot together.
may be something else going on in your clock.
evtm doesnt show light bulbs or interior lighting diagrams so it may exist, but the evtm doest illustrate it.
Sounds great! I also have mine ready for surgery. Mine is also a 4 wire. So, I figure one fuse is in the fuse box, where is the other? I want to check them both first. Thanks!

Lounge / Which way do they GO ???
Quote from: ThunderbirdSport302;416709
I don't have a problem with people more knowledgeable than myself.
I don't have a problem with people who have more money, tools, cars, experience, a bigger dick, whatever...
I DO have a problem with someone who acts like a pompous shaging ass hole because they are pen 15y, or have "done it all"....big whoop.
I've got friends that own Porsches and Vettes, and yes, even a Ferrari. They're all pretty humble folks, and something else, they can change their own oil, and don't feel the need to make a post on some other manufacturer's forum and post this or that about which way there ed brake rotors go.
Also, the subject in question deletes his own posts after getting called out (like a whiny little ass) and threatens to leave occasionally. Need someone to help you hold the door?
It might even be said that you are quick to "brag" about doing this or that (in regards to a Fox Tbird, for example) but when someone asked you a simple question on fabbing some parts (in this case, a bracket to mount a rear disc brake caliper) you ignored that question, and continued post-whoring and shoving chevrolet shiznit down our throats that I said forget it, and I did. I now have a setup that's reliable, works, and I did it myself, with a little help from Clayton and the folks who compiled the rear end chart and put that info up without expecting everyone else to roll right over and kiss their ass...unlike you.
I don't give a if I'm out of line or not, but I think I'm not the only one who feels this way. This place was better off when we didn't have someone posting about LS this...LS that...and causing a f*ckin' argument everytime he posted.
See ya.
Maybe.
Well said! I do think it's a shame that this issue is always ignored to the point that someone has to get so upset that they take the initiative. Then someone has to always drop in and make excuses for him. Like I said, he's running this forum and doesn't seem to give a what anyone thinks. There is a reason he has been evicted from other forums. Chuck W. I usually get the most upset when you are arguing with him. You always have a good point, but he ignores you as well.

Lounge / Changes are coming for the Sport.....
Sounds like quite a make over. Have you decided on a color for your paint?

Here is a car that is the most famous T Bird on the planet. One of the most sough after cars in existence . Care to tell me who owned it 86.
...
What do you contribute to the TECH PAGES. NOTHING So tell me who this car belonged to.
I'm the guy that this forum was meant to assist, but I guess you wouldn't get that either. I'm the new guy who needed to ASK questions about my FORD. I noticed you took you little post off the forum before I could see it (you seem to do that a lot, why is that?)

No, you obviously don't, and calling me narrow-minded is laughable at best.
Tom, stop and read what I've written now, at least twice. I SAID, if you're talking about a conversion on a Fox with some of this stuff, then post it in tech. Seeing as this WHOLE thread had nothing to do with a Fox car, other than your mentioning of your PLANS to do a brake conversion of some sort on a Mustang with some Vette parts, I put it in the Lounge.
The average person cruising through this site is not going to see your post on the MC swap, or the rotor directions and not put 2 and 2 together and try and correlate that to their project. "I picked up a WS6 MC and I can't get it to work in my TBird like you showed it fitting." Like you, they won't actually READ what is posted.
So, you have Porsche brake calipers on your TBird. Cool. How about posting an actual tread in brake tech about what you did to install them on the car, instead of a pair of calipers sitting on a bench? THAT would be useful.
Posting to show "what can be done" is fine, but keep the posts in the tech section related to the what this site is about. Things posted that aren't applicable to the cars of this site, like putting Lambo brakes on a Pacer, while cool, do not belong in the tech section here. Installing Lambo brakes on a TBird, then yeah, that's applicable tech.
You understand yet?
No, he doesn't and NEVER will. He's proved this time and time again. Half this forum is now about chevy's and it's as though all he wants to do is convince every one that he is the ultimate and last word on any subject to arise. Why is it that those of you who has taken the time to create and administer to this forum would let some one else take it away from you and use it for his own, is beyond me. Let him take the time and effort to build his own forum then he can try to "DICTATE" it any way he pleases. Any one who disagrees with him he can call "stupid or dumb" or belittle THEM all he wants as long as they are willing to allow it. The only reason I am not willing to lay down and let him step all over this forum is because there are too many good, meaningful, and very knowledgeable guys here who get pushed aside only because of one person's ego and they are the one's who reached out to me to help. I have pretty much build my car from the ground up with the help of a lot of different guys here some being from the administration here, and I did it IN SPITE of the agitation and harassment of the one who is on about every thread on this forum trying to prove his superiority. DUN!!!

There are tuns of wheels available shiznit CAN THE CRUSE OR RELOCATE THE CONTROLS and pick a wheel DUN !!!
Tom, does this thread bother you? I really think you would be better off starting your own forum instead of always trying to dictate this one. Take you chevy stuff off this fox forum would be nice also.
