Re: [Chrysler300] Fw: Power supply

["Don Verity" <d.verity@xxxx>]

Hi Pat,
Maybe I can help answer your brother in laws questions. The power supply
draws it's current through the orange wire, which has already come through
the light switch. The dimmer switch controls the power going into the power
supply. There were different styles of the power supply, but they all did
the same thing, converted 12 volt AC to 200 volt DC. I've often thought
about using the new car ones myself. If the plug could be adapted to work
with the original wiring, it should be more reliable.
300ly,
Don

i visited my brother-in-law over newyears. i consider him a world class
electronics engineer(my opinion). i left him with an old nonoperable
dashboard power supply. since i have never had an operable one i cant answer
his questions. he is fully confident he can produce working power
supplies-not necessarily reproductions -but they will work for an economical
price. can anyone answer his questions? thanks, pat grant
