I am rewiring the headlights on my 1950 Ford. I have the wiring diagram to help me but I have a question. As I removed the old wires, the ground wire was grounded at the wiring block for each headlight. The diagram shows the ground wires connected together and then run to the harness by the battery. Would there be any difference in the grounding of the wires if I follow the diagram rather than stopping at the wiring block. Thank you
When I rewired my '50 I grounded the headlights to the radiator support. It doesn't matter where you ground them, as long as what you ground them to is indeed a good ground, just make sure that everything that needs to be grounded is grounded when you're done. Removing the wrong wire from one of those wiring blocks could remove the ground for something else.
No, it's the same.....as said above, just make sure the end ground is solid. IF you were doing a new harness from scratch then it would be extra wire for no reason.
