I have recently purchased a 1972xs2 and was wondering about anyones experience with the wiring harness. If you could point me to a thread etc, that would be great also. My harness is original and I am starting to have problems with shorting out bulbs, and mainly the left signals. I have replaced the flasher, inspected most of the wires from the harness, replaced the headlight, checked the bulbs on the signals, and the one main fuse....just about anything that looks electrical I have opened and looked at to see if there is a short/bad connection. I have found a few loose and melted wires within the harness, and tried to clean them and re-tape them. I have a feeling that the wires inside the harness are just melted and deteriorated, I am aware of the crap harnesses that they came with. It seems like people have been having problems with the Mike's XS harnesses with the wires not matching up etc......just wondering what you have done to your 72(or your year) to upgrade/ fix the electrical issues that happen to these babies???? It seems like it would be above my electrical expertise to make my own harness, and I would prefer not to make my own.....but, I have surprised myself in the past. If there is a step by step harness making thread here, I may attempt it. Thanks ahead for your time, and comments
