Well figured it out ,wire was pulled out of cigar lighter light and laying on top of radio grounding out ,it had a 30 amp in the fuse box witch just smoked the dimmer switch reistat ,i had checked fuses and never paid any attention to what was in there ,amazing how something can seem so complicated but be so simple ,i have another problem i,m trying to figure ,maybe you guys can help with ,i have 2 vacum hoses coming out of firewall ,one is short ,it goes to motor for vacum ,the other is long ,it will reach battery ,this car is A/C ,i can,t remember pulling a vacum pod off this ,shouldn,t it have a pod ,it seems you would loose your vacum when accelerated hard and your vacum doors etc on your A/C heater box would loose it vacum and open or does it have some kind of check? What you guys doing for a Radio ,AM radio doesn,t work ,want to update and put a decent radio in it , i seen a after market radio designed for a 68-69 b body through one of the mopar vendors ,can,t remember witch one now ,any ideas ,Thanks for all the input ,i like this sight
