Well, I am almost ready for the 25th. Spent the day in the snow, cold, rain, barely warm sun, and then snow again (I'm tired). Started tearing the Jeep apart, ok it FELT like I was, to finish the CB install. Got the wires all ran, wired it into my power distribution system (I built it, and I will call it a system if I want to), started the Jeep, slowly turned on the CB power, and.... nothing. WTH?
Stared at it for a while, put it back in the Dodge and yes the CB still works. Hmmm? Eventually I realized that I hadn't wired the relay to power THE SYSTEM. It was a relief when I figured it out. Will add the last wire tomorrow.
Having an AC outlet in the Jeep is very nice. Made soldering super easy. I guess I don't have any excuses for not wiring in my offroad and rock lights. I went to 4 auto parts store looking for switches that will fit my Rugged Ridge switch panel, but I guess I will have to order switches to fit it.
I don't feel like leaving the couch, but I gotta go make a ceviche I bought fixins for.
