Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

    Melted Wiring Harnesses Under Dash !!

    So today i took off the dash of my new cb today to pull out the under dash wiring harness to replace the one that got all hacked up (stereo stollen & car alarm improperly insatlled) and also replace the clock thats all broken in the middle of the dash. So when i was taking everything apart i noticed that one of the wiring harnesses is all melted like there was a small electrical fire under the dash that melted a bunch of wires together.....( from the previous owner )....so now as long as i have the dash off and access to the wiring i was wondering how hard it is to replace the wiring harness the goes from the fuse box near the drivers side kickpanel through what appears to be going through the firewall? man im so pissed bout this !! also is there a link showing how to reconnect the under dash wiring harness and under engine harness to all the proper plugs and components , shit got kinda crazy when i was pullin everything and i was losin a little daylight so i dont quite remember where each plug connects up , besides the fact that some of the plugs have been hacked off leaving exposed wires (not by me) ...so like a said any help (how to's /links) would be much appriciated !!! oh also , where would i go about finding new harnesses? and would a haynes or chilton have all this info that im lookin for ? Thanks to eveyone who posts up somethin informative !!

              The Right Way

              If that is silver solder I see in the last photo, I commend you on doing this the right way the first time. I have rebuilt the engine bay harness on my cousin's 1990 Honda Accord EX-Sedan using plenty of generic 16 gauge wiring, silver solder, and shrink tubing.
              1997 Honda Accord EX-V6:
              C27A4 - 2.7-liter 90º-V6 with SOHC, 24-valves, PGM-Fi
              MPZA - Electronically controlled 4-speed automatic, 1 reverse
              ~170 cu. in. / ~170 ft. lbs. / ~170 whp

                    Man I would never be able to take my dash apart like that, I'd be too scared of loosing something or putting it back together.
