1973 Sprint

PostPost by: Peter Poole » Thu Nov 29, 2018 12:05 pm

Hello
I am new to this group, I built my sprint in 73, I have just got it back on the road after many years of
rebuilding,
Having a problem with the windows going up, seemed to remember its linked to the ignition being on
but the wiring diagram does not support this, anybody got any ideas ?
Thanks
Peter

This is how my Sprint works:
Ign off = windows go down but not up.
Ign. on = windows go up and down.

Just checked my car, windows go up & down with ignition off. Looking at the wiring diagram that is what you expect... feed is straight from the Control box... no fuses no nothing...
