Custom VW Wiring Harness with Custom Switch Panel! Sickxty - Volksrod Franken Beetle Baja Build - 53
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 сер 2024
- Todays video, we're diving into the custom wiring for the Sickxty. We'll go over planning, design, wires, cover the turn signals wiring with relay, wire routing and a 8 gang customizable and programable switch panel. The switch panel has a cleaner look vs a bunch of toggle switches on the dash plus it makes wiring in your accessories much easier.
This is a DIY approach versus buying a pre-made harness or trying to use a stock harness since this build is totally custom. This is not a complete how to but a how I'm doing thngs.
We'll also be using a new multimeter, a Tesmem TM-510. Nice compact multimeter at a great price point.

Looking back at this video, reminds me of all the stuff I am putting together now... FROM SCRATCH! Love what you did here, this is the only thing I've seen that is anything similar to what I am doing.
Your setup will be even more unique from what I did. Can’t wait to see you get yours going.
@@VWJawbreaker It'll be unique for sure! I just can't believe how much time I have in it already!
@@DuckmanCycles yep, the time adds up quickly!!
Man, it's hard to beat fresh and tidy wiring!
I couldn’t agree more! Appreciate ya as always.
You Sir, have given me the confidence of tackling a loom now, amazing vid yet again Gary
Thank you sir. You are more capable than you let on to be… you’re doing a great job on both of your VW’s.
@@VWJawbreaker blagging most of it lol. I have made the first steps in the purchase of a 1776 for the bug, I want to do some welding on its ass before I put it in, and I have a bit of a spraying idea going on in my head too, watch this space on that
@@deanrobinson3717 keep me in the loop, can’t wait to see the progress!
Oh man... that paper list of things to connect. Mine is on computer screen, but I too created the same list lol
Gotta stay organized and map it out if you want to get things done correctly!
@@VWJawbreaker Oh man, my map is bigger than most... pages even. LoL! And I haven't even written the software logic yet. That's gonna be a mess!
Loving how is coming along.before long you'll be able to shout "Its alive...Its alive"(young Frankenstein)
That's gonna...BGood👍🇩🇪
Thanks man, I appreciate it.
Definitely can’t wait to make that claim and take it on this first drive! Don’t worry, you’ll be along for the ride 😎
Awesome job Gary!!!! Super clean and effective! Wish this video came out about 4 years ago when I started my wiring job. LOL
Thank you sir!
Yeah, a little late for your build but oh well.
I do like the way it turned out and should be easy to diagnose any future issues.
@@VWJawbreaker Absolutely! It came out beautifully!
Loving the switch panel! Thanks Gary for all the tips for when I loom my volksrod
Thank you buddy! Hope some of this helps you!
@@VWJawbreaker it definitely will. Just dug out a notebook to start planning my wiring needs out. 👍
Such a great job. Interestingly, the later fuel injected Mexican Beetles had the computer located in that same area.
Thanks man! I honestly didn’t know that, never messed with the efi beetles. Guess I’m on the right track then lol
I knew you'd make a neat job of the wiring Gary! This thing is shaping up to be a cool life size Hot Wheels toy! love it all, so much originality! (They'll never let you join DKP with it though, hehe!).
Thank you sir, I appreciate that!
Definitely interesting to see how it’s turning out vs things we talked about a long while back. It’s so easy to go down the rabbit hole and keep tweaking things along the way.
Hi Gary, Great installation of the electrics👍🏻🛠, well executed in the way you thought it would be👏🏻, I´m Impressed how you did that complex piece of Installation🤙, It goes far beyond my capability to perform that😓.Well done my friend🇺🇸💪🏻🍀, Greetings.Hubertus🙏🏻☮🇳🇴🇳🇱
Thank you Hubertus, I appreciate that my friend. It took a lot of planning but it turned out pretty good in the end.
Hope you have a great week and stay safe.
Been binge watching your videos the last couple days, trying to motivate myself to get back to work on my stuff. Have a 73 1303 that's been motorless for 2 years and a 66 panned dunebuggy that had sat 20 years before it fell in my lap last year. Keep up the good work man!!!
I appreciate you taking the time to watch the videos. Hope it helps inspire you to get back on your projects!
Nice job Gary it's always nice when a plan comes together. I've found it very helpful to have a project white board in the garage to really keep me on track:) I love that we have a platform to show our passions and to share with each other our techniques, way we build, and items to buy that really work or what not to buy cause it's plain junk haha. Keep at it brother your doing great!
Thank you sir, I appreciate that.
I do have a white board, just usually forget about it 😂 thus the notebook that helps me stay organized.
I agree completely, it’s great to see how others accomplish their tasks and we can all learn a ton from each other. That is the beauty of what we do here.
Hope the lil one is doing well along with the rest of the family.
@VWJAWBREAKER thanks right back at ya, he's been doing great and in a couple weeks he will be a year old boy does that time fly!
@@V8N8T there’s no way he’ll be a year already!!
@VWJAWBREAKER I know right man did that time go by fast!
@@V8N8T blink a few more times and they’re in high school 😳
Dude, Gary that's looking so clean. Every VW should be that spaghetti free.
Thanks Mark! Maybe jawbreaker will get sorted out down the road as well because she’s a mess 😂
I really studied hard this time watching this because I was curious how that switch panel worked, also building my own, considered using one of these just for the switch panel.... It appears the VoSwitch unit is sealed up and proprietary and part of a bigger kit, there are other switch panels like it, but don't just have regular switches... they are "SMART" Hehehe
There are other brands out there that are basically the same, probably all made in the same factory.
Even though it’s an 8 channel relay board, the panel wire to the board is a 4 wire.
I’m sure what you’re cooking up will be much better and definitely cooler than this setup.
@@VWJawbreaker Yep, 4 wire is probably some form of shift register also, power, data, load and clock, the wire is probably shielded (5th wire) and that is ground. That's still a cool setup there, not knocking it! I just wish I had one here to take apart and reverse-engineer! Hehe!
Wow, beautiful work, Gary
Thank you, I appreciate that.
HOT? Its in the 90's in L.A. (lower Alabama) Great job!!
I know you feel my pain when it comes to living in the south! That video was shot about 5 weeks ago roughly. We’ve been around 90 this week and mid 90’s next week. I already can’t wait for winter 😂
Appreciate you buddy!!
Nice and clean wiring. The control panel is pretty cool.
Thanks buddy. Everything turned out pretty good.
Nice one Gary. That all looks super clean!
Thanks Annie! I’m pretty pleased with the results.
Super clean job on the wiring looks awesome and that meter is a great addition to the shop
Thank you, I appreciate that.
For the price, I’d chose this meter over the harbor freight one any day.
Wow! Looks great! Doesn't seem that hard to do with that system. Love it 🤘🤘
Thank you sir. I think it cleans things up and makes it easier… but that’s just me.
well Gary, you did a awesome job there and i really like the clean look.
i guess you did your homework very well to get it so beautiful installed.
great electro kit you have there with the relays and its strong enough to trow some amp's on it.
can't wait for the next episode. well done.
Thanks buddy. Took a lot of planning and writing things out to ensure I had everything covered properly. I’m pretty pleased on how it turned out.
You made it look easy. Great work!
Thanks man, I appreciate that.
So tidy. Was helping a local group member with a new wiring harness on a 68. My God. What a mess.
At least one of my cars has a clean harness lol
Outstanding job!
@@ReggieBrundidge-ls9tq thank you much!
Wow! That's looking amazeballs!!!
Thanks man!
Nice work, man. Clean and tidy.
Thanks man, I appreciate that
Love that wiring job, that custom unit on the dash is perfect😉 very pro job Mr Garry 👊
Thank you buddy! It turned out pretty good 🤙
Nice job sir!!!! I need to send you some picks of my build . We been building them together lol
Thanks man!
Shoot me an email, it’s in the about section of my channel.
Looks awesome Gary.
Thank you sir.
Great Job Gary not everyone's wiring genius😳😂.Looks sweet though
Appreciate it sir!
I’m not a genius and have already been told what I did was wrong, especially for a VW…. I did what made sense to me, wires are the appropriate size for the circuit and everything works just as it should.
Do what makes sense for you!
@@VWJawbreaker what happened to the wing ? Are you putting it back on ? Which it's probably in the way for now.Still have what doors and hood to paint?
@@jeffcoleman5160 wing is off to the side until it’s ready to be driven.
Actually, the videos are usually about a month behind my actual progress so there’s been quite a bit accomplished since this video was posted. 👍
Looks great, clean and functional, perfect, thanks for bringing us along.
Thanks so much David.
Man Gary , you do nice wiring, very neat 👍
Thank you sir, I’m pretty happy with it.
Wow, clean. Nice work.
Thank you sir.
She’s definitely coming along. The only word of caution I would give you is the support bracket that’s behind your speedometer I would put some protection around the wire loom because vibration and time can wear away the wiring sheath, and possibly cause a short and a possible electrical fire. Had it happen?
That she is!
I do have some loom material for that section of wire…. Keep forgetting to put it on. Thanks for the reminder!
@@VWJawbreaker just looking out for you brother don’t want to see a burn your project to the ground
@@THEREEFREPORT I do appreciate the reminder!!
Looks nice and clean👍🏽
Thanks dude 🤙
Like your video , grate for dumies like me , i have to watch this build from the start💯👍
I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos.
I wouldn’t call yourself a dummy, everyone has different strengths!
Gary that looks great I think that’s what I need to do for my 1974 Super Beetle. Just think about it maybe you can let me know where to get the parts
Thanks Jim!
All depends on how crazy you want to go. Probably 2/3 of everything came from Amazon but I did buy pure copper wire from wire barn. They seemed to have a good price without sacrificing quality.
So cool
Thanks!
Hy, good job and beautiful too. Kris
Thank you, I appreciate that!
Looking good i like it
Thank you sir, should provide years of service.
I'm thinking I want to drop a conduit through the heater channel. I have no heater pipes in there, it should work for me.
The heater channel is wide open inside, the only issue I had was fishing the harness out of the small hole that goes up the a pillar.
@@VWJawbreaker I think mind has a big hole where the heater pipe was suppposed to go... but ya know, I'll do what I'm best at if it's tight.... hehehe!
Very cool.
Thanks buddy.
What a nice job. You keep saying it's hot ? It's 58 degrees today here in N.H.
Thanks Mike!
It was a pleasant 90 here today 🙄
Gary your workmanship is outstanding. Would you recommend this setup for my 67 VW bus. The guy that owned before has got wires running everywhere and I definitely want to tidy things up. Thanks again for all your great videos.
Appreciate it sir.
Best thing to do imo is follow the wiring diagram and go through things one at a time to get it tided up. If it’s butchered pretty bad it wouldn’t hurt to go with a new wiring harness and cut out 56 years of who knows what and possible corroded connections.
Nice
I’m quite pleased with it.
U an electrician. Only one reason why u would have a fishtape 😂
Funny thing is, I’m not an electrician 😂
Ok so I am hoping that I didn't miss something but I havent heard any mention of oh I dont know... AN ENGINE??? Any hint to what you are going to do with the engine yet?
It has been mentioned previously but not talked about much.
The 2054 is coming out of jawbreaker for the Sickxty. A different engine will be built down the road for jawbreaker.
I wanna redo my car now lol
Careful bro, it’s a slippery slope! 😂
Thanks for sharing this Gary. My Beetle doesn't have a loom either. Can you share where you bought all your wire from please? Thanks from New Zealand!
Absolutely and thank you for being here.
I bought the loom from Amazon and the wire came from wire barn. I used an automotive GLX copper wire.
Gary I have the little fuse block and I have ordered the main controller box it is to be here tomorrow and I have ordered my wire from wire barn then I can start working on it I got a list for front and rear. Thanks and if it is alright I may ask a few questions .
Absolutely Jim, I’d be happy to help any way that I can.
@@VWJawbreaker Thanks
@@KCPurpleBug absolutely buddy.
👍
Have a great weekend 🤙
your weather //lol
It’s Florida, what can I say 🤷♂️
Gary looking the wire where you got your what wire size did you order 12 or 14 and maybe some 10
Depends on the circuit I planned for, mixture of 16,14 and 10 for the main wire.
what camera do you use to record?
@@MJ5motorsports I use GoPros for recording.
What does the tank fit?
Pretty sure it’s 10 gallons
Love this! What paint is that, and is it sprayed or brushed on?
Thanks!
There’s a complete playlist on this build. That’s spray on raptor liner.
@VWJawbreaker Cool thanks I'll check it out! Also thanks for your dual carb tuning video, that really helped me out a while back when I did mine.
@@camparikiller glad it helped out out!
Do you think it would be possible to redo a normal bug with that wiring kit? I hate how it is now and want to redo it all.
It is possible, you’d have to start over from scratch.
@@VWJawbreaker no issues doing that if it's cleaner.
It would be a little more invoked in your case due to running a hazard switch, etc but it can be done. Relocate the fuses, etc to under the beach seat. The Mexican fuel injected beetles ecu computer was under the back seat.
