Deanoko Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Title says it. Also need the common chrome 64 knob. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Lorenzen has a complete 64-65 set up for sale on ebay. Talk to him directly and you can probably get it cheaper. He probably has the individual components in his stash as well.

Deanoko Posted April 24, 2022 Author Share Posted April 24, 2022 I will do that! Thanks! I have all the rest of it so would like to avoid having to buy more kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanoko Posted April 24, 2022 Author Share Posted April 24, 2022 What is his handle here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RivNut Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Steve is not on this forum. Find his contact info in the Riview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanoko Posted April 24, 2022 Author Share Posted April 24, 2022 Thanks. I'll look at the latest issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kreed Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 Also might try Tom Mooney . KReed ROA 14549 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanoko Posted April 26, 2022 Author Share Posted April 26, 2022 Yeah, Tom and I talk. He's doing a 4 note horn setup for me. I have sourced the switch. Just need the resistor AND the '64 switch panel with THREE labels (or incorrectly, just the '65 "accessory" switch tab label..) Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also in the Riview. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RivNut Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 Steve Lorenzen in Albany, Indiana. In the Riview as Stepmom62. Has many rare parts and repairs those he doesn't have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deanoko Posted April 26, 2022 Author Share Posted April 26, 2022 Thanks Bill. I've got several reach outs going. Also need the resistor, but have sourced the switch. Gene Guarnere is looking through his boxes for the 3 labels switch plate too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abandg Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 I found one. Do you still need it Gene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanoko Posted May 3, 2022 Author Share Posted May 3, 2022 Yes I do. Will DM you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that if know the properties of the resistor, you won't need a replacement Buck resistor; any resistor with the correct properties will work.

abandg Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 You only need the resistor if you want two different speeds. I am guessing your RIVIERA will not be out in bad weather. If it is the defroster will work as long as the car heat is OK. Gene. I might even have a resistor if you think you really need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not know the properties of the resistor, but would be amenable to learning what they are, rather than buying a "gold plated" one from a reseller.

RivNut Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Think about the resistor like the rheostat on your ceiling fan. It’s used to control fan speed. The dash switch changes the fan speed by selecting which pole of the resistor is used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanoko Posted May 4, 2022 Author Share Posted May 4, 2022 Sigh... I understand the principle, its not rocket surgery, but so far no one has put an ohm meter across a buick resistor to tell me what I'm trying to replicate, or provided a number they've gotten out of a book, or pointed me toward a manual where I might find the info myself. I'm not finding any on my own, and I'm not a newbie to chasing data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanoko Posted May 9, 2022 Author Share Posted May 9, 2022 Both items are on the way, courtesy of Steve L, so we will consider the topic (at least the want) closed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
