Yes, a TCI from an '84 will work on an '87 but the response curve is slightly different on the MK2. There is not a significant enough difference to notice though. The '83 is the only year that will not work with any other year. The later MK2 went to a single pickup coil in 1990 I believe, and won't work with the dual pickup versions... -
I use a Sony Blu Ray player myself...

Further info as I did not completely read your first post. Any 1N400(X) will do such as 4001, 4002, etc. There are other numbers for diodes as well, you do not need much current handling capabilities. Running into a LED the current draw will not be much. I am assuming that you are going to be using a LED for the light. resistors are not rated in volts but in Watts. Watts is Amps times Volts and LED's do not draw much amps (actually milliamps) so 14 X .015 (15 milliamps) is 0.21 watts so 1/4 watt resistor will work but for safety use at least a 1/2 watt resistor or bigger... -
Next time "Antiques Roadshow" is in town take them in...

Dan, you are right, but, the best creature feature for a 1st gen is TRADE IT IN FOR A 2ND GEN!!!

OK what ity looks like is the 330 ohm resistor will lower the voltage to the led so it will normally light dim. When the full 12 volt signal from the brake light hits it then the LED will be lit brighter. The diodes are so the voltage from the two circuits do not feed to the other circuit. Diodes are like one way streets, they only allow electricity to flow one way, the direction the "arrow" points, and not the other way. The band on the body of the diode represents which side of the diode the electricity comes out of. Resistors are devices that, among other things, lower voltage thru them. There is no polarity on a resistor, they work the same either way... -
The server is upgraded, and the site is still here!!! Not sure if I could live thru another "Great Crash...":stirthepot:

It's a great life, but as brought up, the honey-do list keeps growing, and you wonder how you ever got anything done when you were working! Enjoy!!!!!

Oh, well, at least he had a great Christmas vacation, but a he77 of a way to get it...

Yup! Not a great way to start the year off! Here's hoping that is the only bad thing to happen to you this year and the rest of the year brings you health and happiness!

Yah! What Miles said!! I'm using a Buckeye stator and am so far happy with it...

I'm thinking it was probably for a trailer hookup since removed. You should find one on the blue line (running lights), the yellow line (brakes) and the green and brown lines (turn signals) and probably on the ground line (black)... -
Go Gary, Go!!!

Well, now the entire coaching staff has joined Gailey on the unemployment line. We still have the same GM... For now.

That the Bills would fire their Head Coach?!!? Just announced ole Chan is on the unemplopyment line! Yeah, right, like we didn't see THAT coming...

Oh good!! I'm using all of my tools properly...

I would like to see it, but I'm afraid the 'Hawks won't make it to the big game...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Lily!!! Hmmm, 7 X 3 =21. Daddy, I can legally get drunk now...

I think I see it!!! No, wait, that's just a snowdrift...
