hermanangus Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Hi, I am still waiting for my service manuals to arrive and I find myself with two questions, 1 What is that little push button switch located between the fuse-box and steering column? 2 What does the switch located between the frequency indicator and knurled bar on my wonderbar radio do? Any help is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1965rivgs Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 First button is to reset the trip odometer and the radio control is to adjust the sensitivity of the signal reception for the seek feature of the Wonder bar Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Curran Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Your trip odometer re-set is missing the black plastic cap that fits over it. Basically, a tire valve stem cap will do the trick and they are also being re-produced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hermanangus Posted March 21, 2016 Author Share Posted March 21, 2016 (edited) Thanks guys, this is a pic from the Web, but mine is missing a cap too. I thought is supposed to look like that. Gotta love these forums. Edited March 28, 2016 by hermanangus (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jframe Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Not to drift, but does that fuse block actually drop? I put a fuse in my 65, and it staued in the dash when I removed the cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jframe Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Stupid question on my part; it does drop down. Wish I could access the headlight switch better; tight in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hermanangus Posted March 28, 2016 Author Share Posted March 28, 2016 Oh, and I found the foot switch for the Wonderbar, and it works! Well sort of , pretty cool stepping on a foot switch and watching the frequency indicator move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RivNut Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 In the late 80's I was coaching a high school girls softball team. All of a sudden a downpour opened up and we piled as many girls into my '63 that would fit. I turned the radio on and we listened to it while the girls parents came to pick them up. They all disagreed on the station we should be listening to. I told them that "if you snap your fingers while pointing at the radio, the station will automatically change." They thought I had a magic radio. Little did they know that I was switching stations with my foot when they'd snap their finger. I never did tell them it was me. They all thought my 25 year old car was "cooler" than their parent newer ones. Ed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
