1975 ammeter problem
HI,
My ammeter has stopped working & the needle is now faceing the floor ( pointing downwards) so I presume I need another gauge BUT I have read there are two fuseable connections but cannot find them.
Do you think it possible one of the fuese is blown or ( more likely the winding on the ammeter is shot)? is it possible to replace the winding wire on the ammeter? any help on locating the fuses and possible rewinding of the wire would be much appreciated.
The problem occured whilst I was cleaning contacts on the distributor ( I stupidly did not disconnect the battery) when I fired her up the needle bounced and ended up aiming at the bottom of the gauge. I know i am to blame, anyway any help especialy with pictures would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
