Guessing there is supposed to be something there other than a wiring diagram for euro headlights...but not sure what.
Anyhow, my fiddling around today has led me to the crank sensor again. It's reading 290 ohms, and producing 310 millivolts when the engine is cranking. From what I am reading it should be over 400 ohms and producing a bit over 1 volt. Makes me wonder if the thing was marginal but working previous to me changing out the transmission and flywheel. Maybe this flywheel just doesn't produce quite as strong a signal as the old flexplate did?? I'm gonna stick a new sensor in and see what happens.
