!954 Dodge Royale has a 6 volt poss grnd electrical system. Don't get confused when working on it. I found the best way is to just think of it as a normal neg grnd system. poss neg. Unless your working on something that is isolated with a rubber mount or something similar nothing will seem diff.
If the 49 dodge truck is still on it's original 6 volt electrical system it is positive ground. All 6 volt auto systems are/were positive ground. All 12 volt systems are negative ground.
6 volt positive ground is the answer!!!!!!!!
If your 1949 truck is a CHEVY or GMC and it still has the original electrical system, it would be 6 volt, negative ground. If it is a Dodge or a Ford with the oringinal electrical system it would be 6 volt, positive ground.
The 1960 Thunderbird was 12 volt negative ground. The 1955 Thunderbird was 6 volt positive ground and 1956 and up was 12 volt negative ground.
Yes, it is 6 volt positive ground.
Yes, most North American automobiles do. Positive-ground electrical systems never really caught on in the mainstream.
Most likely 12 volt negative ground. If a pre 1960's it could be 6 volt positive ground.
Yes, this tractor has a positive ground system. It may have been retrofitted to 12 volt negative ground over the years though.
Thanks, the dude that's been restoring my car died and I didn't think he hooked it up wrong... I got a 50's Ford 8N tractor and it's positive ground as well
No, only Ford used positive ground electrical systems,but your 53 is probably 6 volt.
Your most likely cause for this is a short in your wiring. Whether its a bad ground or a broken positive. You can use a volt meter or a power probe if you have the money to buy one. Basically you want to check for continuity from ground to ground and positive to positive.
connect the power and acc wires together and put them on the positive and the ground to the negative
