Re: Converting back to six volt

Start by disconnecting the battery, you are dealing with full battery amperage here.
I removed the seat base and laid on the passenger side floor boards with the door open. Clip a light up under the dash for best viewing.
The ammeter is pretty simple, one wire goes from the hot side of the starter solenoid, another wire goes out to the rest of the car. It is the 1st link in the chain after the starter so it can read the amperage use for the car's whole system.
There is a wiring diagram in the 37 owners manual here on the "Literature Archive" page, search under "Show by Year" and click on 1937, it is on the list 15 titles down and the schematic is on page 9.
The wires are held to the back of the ammeter by two nuts, (one in one out in series) with fork or hoop style ends.
