yup my IDI burnt up the dash harness on my way home the other night.cab filled with smoke.pulled over into an empty parking lot,shut down and opened the hood.i looked under the hood and saw something glowing,looked like the wireing for my lightbar.looked under the dash and didnt see anything as it was too dark.so i drove home with no tail lights with my strobes on.lost my dash lights shortly after takeing off again
on the way to work next morning i lost the radio.half way to ehre i was going i lost the speedo.tranny wouldnt shift at all.i tried to shift it manually but when it hit 2nd it just slipped.tranny temps went up into the 300* area.so stopped to let it cool down.not good for the new tranny left it in first and babies it to a parking lot.found 6 blown fuses and a whole bunch of burnt wires.
couldnt find a new one anywhere.i tried to replace the taillight firewall connector but found it burnt all the way up into the dash.i ended up takeing the harness home and cutting out the burnt wires and replaceing the burnt sections one at a time.find the cause of it.when i put the tranny crossmember in it pinched the tail light wire.its all set for now but id like to get a complete harness to replace it with.just cuz i like uncut wireing.
any ways here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure
