Where do the two ground straps go in the engine compartment? - '87 Carrera
Just as the title says.
The two ground straps that are connected by the lid hinges. Where do they terminate to? SmileWavy |
I remember these grounds when I was dong my engine drop, not sure where the other end went though.....

Not those. The wide, braided copper ones that are connected near the lid hinges.
I just don't know where they connect on the other end. |
I don't think i have any on my deck hinges, just the ones in the pic and one on the gearbox if I remember rightly.

These totally look factory since they have plastic covers on them. They are not directly on the hinges, just right next to them. |
I can look tonight. I have those straps too but do not know where the other side attaches. I've never removed them.

Is this the strap? (Sorry for the dark photo- not much light in our parking deck)...
If so, the other end attaches to the hinge bolt at the underside of the engine compartment.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1314203594.jpg |
That ground strap is for the rear wiper.

BTW, I like your forum "handle"! 1-6-2-4-3-5.....very cool |
Much appreciated! Using the name gives me one less thing to think about during a valve adjustment....

Ah yes - I do have those now you mention it!!
One is caught in this photo, on the right hand hinge.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1314222103.jpg |
The inboard end attaches at the hinge pivot bolt/nut. My 87 has no wiper and has this strap on the right side only. I have the cab style third brake light.
